Work-related experiences and needs while undergoing curative cancer therapy: exploring the target population’s perspective during the developmental phase of a work-oriented intervention
While undergoing curative cancer therapy, striving for work-life balance and a normal life is challenging but necessary for wellbeing. Our study findings suggest that a work-oriented intervention tailored to individual needs, flexibility in working conditions, and cooperation between the employee and various stakeholders are warranted during the early stage of cancer therapy.
