Abstract

Background and Objective: Cancer incidence and survival are growing. Over 1/3 of cancer survivors (CSs) are in their working-age [1]. CSs experience pain, fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, mood disorders that may adversely affect social functioning [2]. Systematic reviews show 64% employment rate for CSs, with high variability in different contexts (range 24% -94%) [3]. We reviewed the recent literature on the employment rate of CS in Europe, investigating the factors influencing the return to work (RTW).
