This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study tests a program called WORK-ON that provides structured support to help people with inflammatory arthritis (including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and axial spondyloarthritis) stay employed. The program combines one-on-one consultations with an occupational therapist, group sessions with others facing similar challenges, and support from social workers, nurses, and physiotherapists—all designed to help you manage your disease while keeping your job.
Many people with inflammatory arthritis worry about losing their jobs or being unable to work. Studies show that up to 40% lose their jobs in the first years after diagnosis, and those who take extended time off rarely return to work. This program was created to offer early support when people first start struggling at work, helping them stay employed and maintain their quality of life.

If you join this trial, you will either receive the WORK-ON program or continue with your usual care. The WORK-ON program lasts 6 months and includes meetings with an occupational therapist (about 10 hours total), up to 8 individual sessions with a physiotherapist, nurse, or social worker to work toward your goals, group sessions to meet others facing similar challenges, and a follow-up visit 12 months after you start. You'll work together with the team to set goals around managing your work, understanding your disease, coping strategies, and getting support from your employer or local social services.
