Description Returning to work after an injury—especially one affecting cognitive function—requires a thoughtful, evidence-based approach. Advances in neuroscience and neurotechnology now provide objective tools to assess cognitive readiness, optimize recovery pathways, and support workplace reintegration. This session explores cutting-edge assessment methods, such as neurophysiological to help leaders make informed decisions about accommodations, modified duties, and performance expectations. Learn how these tools can enhance worker recovery, improve return-to-work outcomes, and create a more supportive, resilient workplace environment. Learning Objectives: - How brain assessment technologies can objectively measure cognitive function post-injury.
- The role of neuroplasticity in recovery and how it informs return-to-work strategies.
- How to use neurophysiological data to determine appropriate workplace accommodations.
- Ethical and practical considerations when using cognitive assessment tools.
Who should attend:
This session is ideal for HR professionals, disability management specialists, and workplace leaders involved in return-to-work planning. It is particularly valuable for those responsible for supporting employees recovering from brain injuries, concussions, or other cognitive impairments. Attendees will gain insights into using neuroscience-based assessments to optimize reintegration strategies and improve workplace outcomes.
