N2 - Injuries occurring at work can have consequences exceeding the physical impairments including an impact on one's mental health. This retrospective cohort study aimed to determine whether components of mental health correlate to outcomes of a work rehabilitation program. The sample included 355 participants treated between 2017 and 2020 at Aurora BayCare Medical Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The OSPRO Yellow Flag Assessment Tool, Beck's Depression Inventory, the Patient Health Questionnaire-2, Pain Anxiety Symptoms Scale, and the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia were administered to patients in the work rehabilitation program. The assessments indicated a weak positive correlation between the varying psychological factors assessed and the duration of stay within the work rehabilitation program and a weak negative correlation between the percentage of job demands met at discharge. A patient's psychological status was found to be associated with outcomes with a work rehabilitation program.
