This section includes a list of jobs the claimant had in the five years before they
became unable to work due to their medical condition(s), with basic information about
the kind of work the claimant performed, the dates they worked, the hours per day
and days per week they worked, and their rate of pay.
When the claimant had only one job during the relevant period, they are asked to provide
a complete vocational description of that job in Sections 6.B. through 6.D., as discussed
in DI 11005.023C.6. Additional job history development may be necessary, particularly when the information
is incomplete or the claimant indicated they had more than one job during the relevant
five-year period. Be alert for job information located elsewhere in the file or in
a prior folder and clarify any inconsistent information.
For more information about the relevant work period, see DI 25001.001A.65.
For more information about prior folders, see DI 20505.010.
