Physical Activities Environmental Conditions




The Physical Activities and Environmental Conditions scales follow the Main Characteristics. Refer to the Remarks section for the explanation of asterisks (*) used in both these scales.

Since there is no direct link between the ratings in these sections and the content presented in the NOC’s Main Duties, it was not possible to incorporate them into the narrative. However, they are an integral part of the Descriptor Profile for the occupation and provide important information for counsellor use.

The ratings for Physical Activities factors in an occupational profile do not indicate that persons with disabilities can or cannot perform the duties of that occupation. However, counsellors of clients with disabilities may find the information useful in terms of considering workplace accommodations that would enhance their client’s employability.
