SmaRTWork - a Decision Support System to Promote Return to Work Among People Sick-listed With Musculoskeletal Disorders

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of an intervention, SmaRTWork, on return to work compared to usual care for individuals who are sick-listed due to musculoskeletal disorders. Potential participants are individuals of working age (20-59 years) sick-listed due to a musculoskeletal disorder (neck pain, low back pain, or widespread pain) for up to 12 weeks living in Norway. The primary outcome will be time to sustainable return to work. We will also evaluate the effect on other work outcomes and health outcomes. We will also interview participants and stakeholders about their experience with the intervention.
