The literature reviewed indicates that researchers understand the work demands for people with SCI and may help to identify suitable supports, training and job opportunities. There remains a need for research focus on understanding future employment demands, necessary work skills, differing work environments and methods for increasing and preserving employment.Spinal Cord advance online publication, 10 April 2012; doi:10.1038/sc.2012.38.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
