Work history consists of specific information about current employment status, length of tenure on past jobs, job losses, leaves of absence, and occupational injuries. The following are sample questions:
• Where is your current employment? What is your position? How long have you worked there?
• Where did you last work? What was your position? How long did you work there? Why did you leave?
(Note. Ask these questions to document jobs held over a period of several years. Ask about any periods of time when the client did not work.)
• Were you ever in the military service? If yes, for how long? Did you experience combat? What was your discharge (e.g., honorable, general, dishonorable)?
