ABSTRACT

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of socio-demographic, injury-related, and pre-injury job characteristics on the types of return-to-work among injured workers in South Korea. This study used the data from 1,993 injured workers in 2012 based on the first wave of the Panel Study of Worker’s Compensation Insurance (PSWCI). According to the results, workers who were in their 40s and 50s, living with spouse, working in a company with 100 employees or less, had less than three months of medical care, good health status, and worked for a long period as a regular employee were more likely to return to pre-injury job or find a new job. Thus, policy makers and practitioners need to consider not only socio-demographic and injury-related characteristics but also pre-injury job characteristics when designing return-to-work programs for injured workers in South Korea.
