| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | Is participatory ergonomics for workers with common mental disorders more (cost-)effective on return-to-work than usual clinical medical care? |
| Ethics approval(s) | Added as of 23/08/2007: The Medical Ethics Committee of the VU University Medical Center (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) has approved the study protocol. |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Mental disorders |
| Intervention | A project group consisting of experts in the field of mental disorders will develop a protocol for workplace adaptations based on methods used in participatory ergonomics (PE). Work(place) adaptations, will be applied by a trained occupational nurse. A group of stakeholders (sick listed worker, the worker's supervisor, and potential other stakeholders) in the return-to-work (RTW) process will be formed and guided by the occupational nurse. The protocol is directed to achieve consensus among stakeholders regarding feasible work(place) adaptations to facilitate RTW. Patients will be randomised to PE or usual clinical care (n = 2 x 72). A process analysis will be included. |
