Brief Summary:
The overall aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a problem-solving intervention for the prevention of sick leave among employees with early signs of CMDs. The intervention is delivered by first-line managers and a 30% reduction in sick leave days is expected in the experimental condition compared to treatment-as-usual, during the 12- months follow-up.
Detailed Description:
The overall aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a problem-solving intervention for the prevention of sick leave among employees with early signs of CMDs. The intervention is delivered by first-line managers and a 30% reduction in sick leave days is expected in the experimental condition compared to treatment-as-usual, during the 12- months follow-up.
In an alongside process evaluation on the intervention's core activities, i.e. identification of early signs of CMDs, training of first-line managers in problem-solving and communication, we will:
* evaluate whether and to what extent it was possible for the first-line managers to adhere to the intervention's protocol,
* investigate the association between the intervention's core activities and number of sick leave days,
* identify the facilitators and barriers to the intervention among first-line managers and employees and,
* explore the first-line manager's organizational resources supporting their general managerial work.
The study will be conducted in private sector companies, among first-line managers and blue-collar workers. The outcomes will be evaluated on both cluster- and individual participant level.
