Multiple sclerosis produces wide-ranging effects on a person's physical, psychological, and social functioning. One of the most important is its effect on employment. Although the vast majority of people with this disease have employment histories and were working at the time of diagnosis, many are unable to maintain employment as the disease progresses.
Employment Issues and Multiple Sclerosis, 2nd Edition is a must read for any person with MS that has a question regarding employment and disability. Chapters cover everything from vocational rehabilitation to job placement, and the laws covering employment.
The Updated Edition Includes:

- An expanded and updated chapter on research and services regarding the employment of Americans with MS
- Completely updated chapter on policy, programming, and research recommendations to improve the rate of labor force participation of people with MS
