The objective of this study is twofold: (1) to better understand the Return-to-Work (RTW) process of employees on sick leave due to burnout by evaluating RTW obstacles and self-efficacy to overcome them, and (2) to investigate strategies implemented for maintaining employment following burnout.
Fifty-one participants completed the online questionnaire titled "Return-to-Work Obstacles and Self-Efficacy Scale (ROSES)", and two focus groups were conducted with employees returning to work after experiencing burnout.
All the ROSES dimensions emerged as potential obstacles to returning to work after burnout. Several were particularly challenging to overcome, such as Fears of a relapse, Cognitive difficulties, and Loss of motivation to RTW. Qualitative analysis of verbatim from focus groups identified eight categories of strategies for overcoming these obstacles, such as Work involvement regulation strategies, Identity and anxiety regulation strategies, Seeking care and support from professionals, and Cognitive and metacognitive strategies, among the most often mentioned.
These findings pave the way for a more detailed analysis of the perceived obstacles individuals face during their RTW after burnout. Furthermore, the identification of strategies to overcome these obstacles may prove beneficial not only for the sustainable RTW of individuals, but also for the professionals who support them.
本研究的目的有两个：（1）通过评估重返工作岗位的障碍和克服这些障碍的自我效能，更好地了解因职业倦怠而休病假的员工的重返工作岗位（RTW）过程；（2）调查为职业倦怠后维持就业而实施的策略。
51名参与者完成了题为“重返工作岗位障碍与自我效能量表（ROSES）”的在线问卷，并对经历职业倦怠后重返工作岗位的员工进行了两个焦点小组访谈。
ROSES的所有维度都成为职业倦怠后重返工作岗位的潜在障碍。有几个维度尤其难以克服，例如对复发的恐惧、认知困难以及重返工作岗位的动力丧失。对焦点小组逐字记录的定性分析确定了八类克服这些障碍的策略，其中最常提到的有工作投入调节策略、身份认同和焦虑调节策略、寻求专业人士的护理和支持以及认知和元认知策略。
这些发现为更详细地分析个体在职业倦怠后重返工作岗位时所面临的感知障碍铺平了道路。此外，确定克服这些障碍的策略可能不仅对个体的可持续重返工作岗位有益，而且对支持他们的专业人员也有益。
