Richtlijn ‘Chronisch zieken en werk’

• The guideline ‘The chronically ill and work’ gives insight into disease-overarching factors and interventions that can promote or impede the participation in the work process of workers and those looking for work who have a chronic condition.
• In particular, the guideline focuses on the role taken on by workers or those looking for work themselves during the process of keeping or resuming work.
• The guideline gives recommendations for the daily practice of healthcare providers which are based on knowledge from disease-specific guidelines, the international literature and the experiences of healthcare providers, and workers and those looking for work with a chronic condition.
