“…The results of six studies indicated that the feeling of having more control is associated with more work participation (Busch et al 2007; Roesler et al 2013; Selander et al 2007; Sluiter and Frings-Dresen 2008; Truchon et al 2010; Vlasveld et al 2013). These results were supported by one qualitative study by Dionne et al (2013), in which it was reported that participants who did not RTW considered that their return depended more on factors related to their environment than on personal factors. However, one quantitative study only found evidence on some specific forms of control but not others (Torres et al 2009).…”

PurposeThe objective of this systematic review was to explore and provide systematically assessed information about the association between person-related factors and work participation of people with health problems. The research question was: what is the association between selected person-related factors and work participation of workers with health problems?MethodsA systematic review was carried out in PubMed and PsycINFO to search for original papers published between January 2007 and February 2017. The risk of bias of the studies included was assessed using quality assessment tools from the Joanna Briggs Institute. The quality of evidence was assessed using the GRADE framework for prognostic studies.ResultsIn total, 113 studies were included, all of which addressed the association between person-related factors and work participation. The factors positively associated with work participation were positive expectations regarding recovery or return to work, optimism, self-efficacy, motivation, feelings of control, and perceived health. The factors negatively associated with work participation were fear-avoidance beliefs, perceived work-relatedness of the health problem, and catastrophizing. Different coping strategies had a negative or a positive relationship with work participation.ConclusionsThe results of this review provide more insight into the associations between different cognitions and perceptions and work participation. The results of this study suggest that person-related factors should be considered by occupational- and insurance physicians when they diagnose, evaluate or provide treatment to employees. Further research is required to determine how these physicians could obtain and apply such information and whether its application leads to a better quality of care.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s00420-018-1308-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Our study showed that these program elements are also beneficial for young adults entering the labor market after finishing education. The relation between work participation and self‐efficacy was mentioned in previous studies on adults with physical disabilities (Dionne et al ; de Jong et al ). Although modelling is assumed to be an appropriate strategy to foster people's self‐efficacy, respondents did not evaluated it as valuable (Bandura, ; Bartholomew et al ).…”

The findings suggest that programs supporting work participation should be designed to provide challenging, real-world experiential opportunities that provide young adults with physical disabilities with new insights, self-efficacy and life skills. Also, such programs should facilitate context centered learning. Former intervention participants, therefore, evaluated job-interview training, sharing learning and social experiences with peers, job placement, arrangement of adjusted work conditions and education as beneficial attributes of the 'At Work' program. In addition, they recommended, to incorporate more training on assertiveness and disclosure. We advise professionals to include these beneficial attributes in similar interventions in other contexts.

“…Bezüglich der Rezidivangst waren sich die eingeschlossenen Studien einig, dass diese sich nachteilig auf den RTW-Prozess auswirken [16,33,35]. Diese stellt ein Anzeichen für Hindernisse und Barrieren im RTW-Prozess dar [16,35], wohingegen die Kenntnis der eigenen Grenzen/auf den Körper hören Moderatoren für RTW darstellen [16]. Darüber hinaus stellen das Katastrophisieren von Schmerzen und schmerzbezogene Ängste stärkere Prädiktoren von Aktivitätseinschränkungen dar, als die Intensität des Schmerzes [35].…”

Zusammenfassung Theorie Die Mehrzahl der Menschen erlebt mind. eine Rückenschmerzepisode in ihrem Leben. Patienten mit chronischen Schmerzen verursachen durch Arbeitsunfähigkeit und Inanspruchnahme von Gesundheitsdienstleistungen hohe Kosten. Die Rückkehr an den Arbeitsplatz stellt daher ein zentrales Rehabilitationsziel dar. Methode Die Literaturrecherche erfolgte in den Datenbanken PSYNDEX, PsycINFO, MEDLINE und ScienceDirect und ergab 27 Artikel. Ergebnisse Die untersuchten Einflussfaktoren ließen sich in 3 Gruppen einteilen: (1) psychische und psychosoziale, (2) arbeits- und arbeitsplatzbezogene und (3) (gesundheits-)systembezogene Einflussfaktoren. Geringe Genesungserwartungen, Rezidivangst, Fear-avoidance-beliefs und ein Mangel an sozialer Unterstützung am Arbeitsplatz stellen Hindernisse für Return to work dar. Hohe Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen, Anpassungen des Arbeitsplatzes an die Bedürfnisse des Patienten, sowie Informationen durch Gesundheitsdienstleister wirken sich positiv aus.
