Pathways – a key reference project on employment and chronic diseases
PATHWAYS is a three-year project (2015-2018) concerning the development of innovative approaches for promoting the professional integration and reintegration of people with chronic diseases in order to improve their employability. The evidence derived from this project will form the background for work on NCDs and employment within the CHRODIS PLUS Joint Action, specifically in WP8 “Chronic Diseases and Employment: health in all sectors”.
