| relief work | Assistance, such as money, food, or shelter, given to the needy, aged, or victims of disaster. It is usually granted on a temporary basis. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| rescue work | Activities devoted to freeing persons or animals from danger to life or well-being in accidents, fires, bombings, floods, earthquakes, other disasters and life-threatening conditions. While usually performed by team efforts, rescue work is not restricted to organised services. (12 Dec 1998) |
| work | <chemistry> Energy transferred by mechanical means, force acting over a distance. For chemical systems the sign for work is positive, if work is done on the system and negative, if work is done by the system. An example is the expansion of a gas against the external, atmospheric pressure. In this case work is negative, because it is done by the gas which represents the system. (09 Jan 1998) |
| work capacity evaluation | Assessment of physiological capacities in relation to job requirements. It is usually done by measuring certain physiological (e.g., circulatory and respiratory) variables during a gradually increasing workload until specific limitations occur with respect to those variables. (12 Dec 1998) |
| work of breathing | Respiratory muscle contraction during inspiration. The work is accomplished in three phases: that required to expand the lungs against its elastic forces (lung compliance work), that required to overcome the viscosity of the lung and chest wall structures (tissue resistance work), and that required to overcome airway resistance during the movement of air into the lungs (airway resistance work). Work of breaking does not refer to expiration, which is entirely a passive process caused by elastic recoil of the lung and chest cage. (guyton, textbook of medical physiology, 8th ed, p406) (12 Dec 1998) |
| work schedule tolerance | Physiological or psychological effects of periods of work which may be fixed or flexible such as flexitime, work shifts, and rotating shifts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| work simplification | The construction or arrangement of a task so that it may be done with the greatest possible efficiency. (12 Dec 1998) |
| social work | The use of community resources, individual case work, or group work to promote the adaptive capacities of individuals in relation to their social and economic environments. It includes social service agencies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| social work department, hospital | Hospital department responsible for administering and providing social services to patients and their families. (12 Dec 1998) |
| social work, psychiatric | Use of all social work processes in the treatment of patients in a psychiatric or mental health setting. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stroke work index | A measure of the work done by the heart with each contraction, adjusted for body surface area; equal to the stroke volume of the heart multiplied by the arterial pressure and divided by body surface area; the normal stroke work index does not exceed 40 gram-meters per square meter. (05 Mar 2000) |

| work hardening |
Molecular compression of metal caused by hammering, stretching, drawing, bending and rolling or compressing that decreases, malleability and ductility making the metal hard. Annealing is used to relax the molecular structure so that it is soft or ready to be formed again.

| work hardening |
A technique that assists an injured employee to gradually readjust to the physical demands of a job. The injured employee practices job-related tasks using less weight, a shorter period of time, or slower pace than is required in the actual job.
