Abstract
We conducted a pilot study that uses a mixed methods approach to survey occupational therapists working in hand therapy with their experiences with occupational justice (OJ). The intent was to see if issues of occupational justice are identified as a problem in this population and if these issues affect therapy. Five main concepts were used to define occupational injustice. The results from our survey identified occupational imbalance (27.3%) and occupational deprivation (25%) as the most prevalent issues. Additionally, 62.5% of respondents were certified hand therapists who recognized occupational justice issues in their practice settings. Further research could focus on how occupational therapists address the OJ issues they encounter on a daily basis.
