- Abstract
The article offers information on chronic low-back pain (LBP), which results in disability at work and affects the work performance and career of an individual. It discusses barriers in the return-to-work process that hinders recovery like the workplace factors including heavy physical demands and job stress and the psychological factors including depressed mood, social isolation and fear-avoidance beliefs. It suggests the exercise intervention trials for LBP to improve work endurance.
