Abstract: | The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) presents a new paradigm for understanding health and health-related conditions and promises to be a useful tool in job placement. The ICF framework is compatible with ecological, systems-based approaches to placement and can assist vocational rehabilitation professionals in identifying needed interventions, implementing effective placement strategies, and assessing employment outcomes. This article presents an overview of the ICF, its potential applications in job placement practice and research, and provides a case study example. Current limitations of the ICF and possible future directions are also discussed. |
