A prospective and longitudinal study about head injury victims was carried out in order to identify their return to productivity after 6 months and 1 year post-trauma and to analyze the relationship between their return to work and their educational level as well as to determine the relationship between their return to work and their type of job before the onset of the injury. Of the 72 patients who were students or employees pre-injury, or housewives at the time of injury, the majority (73.6%) had returned to productivity 6 months after onset of injury. Of the victims who had returned to productivity, 25.0% had changed their original occupations or reported significant problems when returning to productivity. Baseline return was achieved in 48.6% of the victims at 6 months. Return to productivity was higher at 1 year after injury than at 6 months. When the relationship between return to work and educational level and job type was analyzed, return to work was not related to educational level or job type.
