20.500.12556/RUL-171054 Returning to work in the digital age why smartphone interventions must go further Return-to-work (RTW) after long- term absence due to ill health (or other factors) can be fraught with psychological, physical, and organisational challenges which may require continuous management to ensure successful employee reintegration. While digital interventions have emerged to support reintegration, a recent systematic review revealed that few explicitly address RTW needs, despite growing interest in e-mental health. Early online interventions demonstrate promise in improving psychological outcomes, yet face limitations in scalability, personalisation, and integration into workplace systems. Smartphone- based interventions via applications/ apps offer a scalable alternative, leveraging ubiquitous technology to deliver support beyond bespoke settings through self-monitoring, continuous learning, and communication tools. However, existing RTW-focused apps remain narrowly tailored to specific conditions, with limited adaptation to individual needs and insufficient evaluation of long-term effectiveness. Future developments must prioritise personalisation, rigorous evaluation in diverse populations, and integration within occupational health and real-world employer systems with organisational support. Addressing these gaps is essential to fully realise the potential of digital solutions in supporting sustainable work reintegration that is respectful and compassionate. telework mobile telephony working conditions delo na daljavo mobilna telefonija delovni pogoji true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-07-30 10:35:00 2025-07-30 10:35:08 2025-07-31 04:10:52 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 3 str. article no. ǂ468 Vol. 8 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 331.3 2398-6352 10.1038/s41746-025-01894-7 243813379 Kohont_et_al_NPJ-DG.pdf Kohont_et_al_NPJ-DG.pdf 1 8A91D3FDDA52EB7BDDB0D5A2CED0EA76 641ef344e558f8dde9fb44dba036207ff5524db021e4afd85a7aba403a872acb 4214b47c-6d21-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=213777 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41746-025-01894-7 0 4b8ef752-6d21-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=213778 Fakulteta za družbene vede Ekonomska fakulteta 0 0 0
