Abstract
Although managers may not be aware of it, research suggests that 20%-30% of employees may be working while experiencing chronic pain. In this article, we review what is known about chronic pain and how it is experienced in the workplace. We argue that chronic pain is an issue that organizations need to deal with and we make specific recommendations for doing so.
