Abstract Summary
Study reveals key differences in how employers, doctors, and employees define “successful” return-to-work after mental health absence. While supervisors/physicians prioritize sustainability and job performance, employees value work-life balance and mental wellbeing equally. Research suggests current scientific measures may miss what truly matters to workers.
