title: Differential utilization of manpower.
abstract: Employers often ignore the different levels of skill among social workers and regard the non-MSW as merely a less expensive, second choice after the MSW for the same job. The author discusses a more productive allocation of work among MSWs and BSWs and describes its application in a medical setting.
