People who have been on long-term absence from work because of ill health usually have reduced chances to resume work again. Nevertheless, little is known about its causal factors. The aim of this study is to present and test an empirical model to predict return to work of employees who are long-term absent for physical- or mental ill health reasons.
A longitudinal study has been performed with a sample of long-term absents in five European countries (N = 1460).
Health improvement is necessary but it alone not sufficient as precondition for return to work. Psychological factors (ie, self-efficacy, depression) and organizational factors have the highest impact.
A climate for work resumption and its implications for personnel management practices to reduce/prevent workers to remain in absence leave when the medical symptoms have disappeared are discussed.
长期因病缺勤的人通常再次恢复工作的机会减少。然而，其因果因素知之甚少。本研究旨在提出并检验一个预测因病（身体或心理）长期缺勤的员工重返工作岗位的实证模型。
对来自五个欧洲国家的长期缺勤者样本（N=1460）进行了一项纵向研究。
健康状况的改善是必要的，但它本身并不是重返工作岗位的充分条件。心理因素（即自我效能感、抑郁）和组织因素的影响最大。
讨论了恢复工作的氛围及其对人事管理实践的影响，以减少/防止员工在医疗症状消失后仍继续休病假。
