Returning to work after long-term sick leave

Lord, JD

Abstract

When an employee is off work due to long-term sick leave, lasting four weeks or more, they can face increased difficulties getting back into the routine of work and their normal way of life. These difficulties are varied and will depend on the nature of the illness but it can affect loss of confidence, belief in the loss of skills, physical and mental wellbeing, and isolation and disconnection from the world of work.
