agree  Christopher Smith: although I would have said 'rehabilitation' rather than 'reintegration'.
55 mins
  -> Thanks, Christopher (:-{)> that works too, although these days reintegration seems to be the word of choice specifically for going back to work for the same employer, possibly in a different job

agree  writeaway: am sure this has been asked before. but the glossary being what it is..... Jurlex also gives health and safety, as well as working conditions. often seems the guy tries to cover his back on all fronts. (:-{)>

  -> Thanks, P. (:-{)> quite so - glossary refers to arbo and the act, etc.

Don't know why the confidence level came out as '1', I thought I picked 'high'. Never mind.

neutral  writeaway: even good ol' Jurlex gives health and safety, as well as working conditions. guess the guy couldn't make up his mind. don't agree with rehab-isn't it reintegration into the workforce ?
