ABSTRACT
This study assesses individual factors that influence return to work (RTW) and in particular on the cancer survivors' ability to prepare his/her job resumption. A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 105 cancer survivors after at least 4 weeks after the time of their RTW. Various methods of returning to work were compared between occupational and medical characteristics with multivariate statistical tests. Regular contact by a cancer survivor with the company during sick leave is associated with RTW within 1 year of diagnosis (ORaj = 5.78). Optional pre-reinstatement visit with the occupational physician is associated with the absence of employee activity's change (ORaj = 2.30). The cancer survivors who during treatment period ask for an adaption of treatment are more likely to have a change in working conditions (ORaj = 14.5). The adaptation to recovery conditions appears to be associated with survivors' effort to RTW. It should be confirmed with new studies.
