Qualitative evaluation of a job retention pilot for people with mental health problems.
The aim of this study was to evaluate a job retention service intended to support GPs in preventing unemployment among patients with mental health problems. Interviews with job retention clients, their employers and case managers were carried out. A group interview with GPs was also conducted. Client-focused interventions were reported to be helpful by clients and GPs and employer-focused interventions were appreciated by both clients and employers. All clients attributed positive outcomes to the service. In conclusion, these preliminary results support the further development and evaluation of job retention services.

The how and why of workplace adjustments: contextualizing the evidence.
PURPOSE: To identify the problems experienced in the workplace by service users returning to work and to explore how and why adjustments can help overcome them. METHOD: Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 17 people in five employment projects and with their workplace managers. Interviews were tape recorded, fully transcribed and analyzed to identify and compare emerging themes. RESULTS: Problems experienced by individuals included low energy and stamina levels, lack of confidence and psychological barriers to particular types of work. Adjustments to working hours, work schedules and job tasks proved crucial for some people in enabling them to overcome these problems.
