Rehabilitation Workforce Evaluation: Training Workshop, Hong Kong SAR (‎China)‎, 27–29 February 2024: meeting report

Overview

Traditional approaches to workforce development have focused on supply and public sector requirements, and have largely ignored health labour market dynamics. The state of the rehabilitation workforce is influenced by the health needs of the population, the demand for and supply of rehabilitation services, and governance of rehabilitation and the health workforce more broadly. Together, these factors influence the availability of funded employment positions for rehabilitation workers, their wages and allowances, the number of hours they work, their geographical distribution, their employment settings, and their motivation, productivity and performance.
