The effect on work presenteeism of job retention vocational rehabilitation compared to a written self-help work advice pack for employed people with inflammatory arthritis: protocol for a multi-centre randomised controlled trial (the WORKWELL trial)

Abstract: Background Work problems are common in people with inflammatory arthritis. Up to 50% stop work within 10 years due to their condition and up to 67% report presenteeism (i.e. reduced work productivity), even amongst those with low disease activity. Job retention vocational rehabilitation (JRVR) may help prevent or postpone job loss and reduce presenteeism through work assessment, work-related rehabilitation and enabling job accommodations. This aims to create a better match between the person’s abilities and th… Show more

“…Employers can discourage frequent or long-term absence from work by implementing strict sickness absence control procedures [ 75 , 89 ]. A causative relationship between the specific effects of CIDs and presenteeism has not been established, but there is some evidence to suggest that these conditions influence presenteeism behaviour [ 90 , 91 , 92 ].…”

“…WORKWELL is a pragmatic, multi-centre individually-randomised trial of job-retention vocational rehabilitation for employed people with inflammatory arthritis which, unlike the ActWELL trial, uses participant self-report to collect outcome data. 5 The MRC-funded PROMETHEUS project resourced a replication of a pre-notification SWAT nested within WORKWELL. Our intervention differed from the ActWELL SWAT in the pre-notification being sent by letter or e-mail rather than postcard because the host trial gave participants a choice of data collection method (postal or online questionnaire).…”
