About the journal
WORK: A Journal of Prevention, Assessment and Rehabilitation
http://www.iospress.nl/html/10519815.html
Publisher: IOS Press
WORK: A Journal of Prevention, Assessment and Rehabilitation will publish
high quality peer-reviewed manuscripts covering the entire scope of
interdisciplinary and international work practice.
The journal's subtitle has been deliberately laid out: Our first goal is
injury or disability prevention. When this goal is not reachable and the
client sustains a disability, we focus our attention on assessing individual
needs and follow that with rehabilitation or any other form of intervention
deemed necessary.
WORK occasionally publishes thematic issues, but in general, issues cover a
wide range of topics from school-aged children to older workers.
The Editor and her Editorial Board will especially encourage the publication
of both research studies and clinical practice, as well as case study
reports. With an internationally renowned Editorial Board, WORK will
maintain high standards in the evaluation and publication of manuscripts.
All manuscripts will be reviewed expeditiously and published in a timely
manner.

Preparation of manuscripts:
1. Manuscripts must be written in English. Authors whose native language is not in English
are recommended to seek the advice of a native English speaker, if possible, before submitting
their manuscripts.
2. Manuscripts should be typed on one side of the paper only, with wide margins and double
spacing throughout. For the electronic file of the text you may use any standard word processor.
Do not use page layout software and do not send PostScript files of the text.
3. Manuscripts should be typed on one side of the paper only, with wide margins and double
spacing throughout, including the abstract, footnotes and references. Every page of the
manuscript, including the title page, references, tables, etc., should be numbered. However, in
the text no reference should be made to page numbers; if necessary, one may refer to sections.
Try to avoid the excessive use of italics and bold face.
4. Manuscripts should be organized in the following order:
Title page
Introduction
Body of text (divided by subheadings)
Conclusion
Acknowledgements
References
Tables
Figure captions
Figures
5. Headings
Headings and subheadings should be numbered and typed on a separate line, without indentation.
SI units should be used, i.e., the units based on the metre, kilogramme, second, etc.
6. Title page
The title page should provide the following information:
Title (should be clear, descriptive and not too long)
Name(s) of author(s); please indicate who is the corresponding author
Full affiliation(s)
Present address of author(s), if different from affiliation
Complete address of corresponding author, including tel. no., fax no. and e-mail address
Abstract (The abstract should be clear, descriptive, self-explanatory and not longer than
200 words. It should also be suitable for publication in abstracting services)
Keywords (3-5 words not in your title)
7. Tables
Tables should be numbered according to their sequence in the text. The text should
include references to all tables.
Each table should be provided on a separate page of the manuscript. Tables should never
be included in the text.
Each table should have a brief and self-explanatory title.
Column headings should be brief, but sufficiently explanatory. Standard abbreviations of
units of measurement should be added between parentheses.
Vertical lines should not be used to separate columns. Leave some extra space between
the columns instead.
Any explanations essential to the understanding of the table should be given in footnotes
at the bottom of the table.
Table captions should be provided all together on a separate sheet.
8. Figures
Figures should be numbered according to their sequence in the text. The text should
include references to all figures.
Each figure should be provided on a separate sheet. Figures should not be included in the
text.
Color figures can be included, provided the cost of their reproduction is paid for by the
author.
For the file formats of the figures please take the following into account:
line art should be have a minimum resolution of 600 dpi, save as EPS or TIFF
grayscales (incl photos) should have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi (no lettering), or
500 dpi (when there is lettering); save as tiff do not save figures as JPEG, this format may
lose information in the process; do not use figures taken from the Internet, the resolution
will be too low for printing; do not use colours in your figures if they should be printed in
black & white, because this will reduce the print quality (note that in software often the
default is color, you should change the settings)
For figures that should be printed in colour, please send both a hard copy (to be used for
the paper publication), and a CMYK encoded EPS or TIFF (used for the electronic
publication)
Each figure should be identified by its number. If necessary, indicate top or bottom of
figure.
Figures should be designed with the format of the page of the journal in mind. They
should be of such a size as to allow a reduction of 50 %.
On maps and other figures where a scale is needed, use bar scales rather than numerical
ones, i.e., do not use scales of the type 1:10,000. This avoids problems if the figures need
to be reduced.
Each figure should have a self-explanatory caption. The captions to all figures should be
typed on a separate sheet of the manuscript.
Photographs are only acceptable if they have good contrast and intensity
Each illustration should be provided on a separate sheet. Illustrations should not be
included in the text. The original drawings (no photocopies) are required. Electronic
files of illustrations should preferably be formatted in Encapsulated PostScript Format.
Footnotes should be kept to a minimum, and they should be provided all together on a
separate sheet.
9. References
