This survey identifies 12 specific examples of best rehabilitation practices following the absence due to stress-related illness, and highlights the various factors which influence their effectiveness. It discusses costs and benefits of the various rehabilitation practices. It considers the historical development of the rehabilitation practices within the case study organizations, and describes the key factors that lead to the development of procedures. It concludes that this type of information will encourage other employers to develop their own rehabilitation practices. |
