Massachusetts vocational rehabilitation

If you have been disabled to an extent that you cannot return to your pre-injury occupation, you may be entitled to Massachusetts vocational retraining at no cost to you. Vocational Rehabilitation (also referred to as "vocational retraining") is designed to assist Massachusetts injured workers in finding a new job or career that their injuries will allow them to do.  Vocational retraining may include vocational counseling and testing, job seeking skills, job placement and job modification.  Vocational rehabilitation is aimed at returning you to suitable, gainful employment for a new occupation in the most expedient and cost-effective way.
