The rehabilitation of accident and other non-work related cases in a special unit which forms part of the industrial medical service at a large car factory. An insight into the Rehabilitation 'shop' at Vauxhall Motors which handles 300 people per year. A man arrives in a motorised chair and manoeuvres himself into a wheelchair. The men in the workshop are engaged at mostly seated benches doing dry, light engineering work. The men return to work quickly ostensibly to avoid muscle wastage using a range of ingenious adjustments to the machinery to perform light repetitive tasks suitable to their capabilities. Many of the adjustments are machine made in the Rehabilitation Shop itself. There is a physiotherapy department. The Vauxhall 'boot' is demonstrated - it is a real boot made large enough to fit over a foot/leg which has been placed in plaster. At the end of the day, the men clock off 5 minutes early in order to avoid the rush and are paid in the same way. The narrator points out that it is important not to let them 'mope' about; men are seen in a club or public house with pints of bitter playing darts - one of the patients beats the able-bodied players.
