The return to work after breast cancer recovery is influenced by psychosocial factors, including a shift in life values towards more emphasis on private life. Clinical determinants, work-related factors, and psychosocial factors all play a role in this change. Depressive symptoms are negatively associated with this shift.
Background Return to work (RTW) after cancer can be modulated by psychosocial factors, including a reordering of one's life values, with more emphasis on private life than work-life. This change in patients' outlook on work-life is however poorly understood. Methods We used data from a French cohort (CANTO, NCT01993498) of women diagnosed with stage I-III primary breast cancer (BC) prospectively assessing life priorities between work and private life at diagnosis and 2 years after diagnosis. We identified women who reported a shift in life values toward private life, and we investigated the clinical, demographic, work-related, and psychosocial determinants of this change using logistic regressions. Results Overall, 46% (N = 1097) of the women had reordered their life priorities toward private life 2 years after diagnosis. The factors positively associated with this shift included being diagnosed with stage III BC, perceiving one's job as not very interesting, being an employee/clerk (vs. executive occupation), perceiving no support from the supervisor at baseline, perceiving negative interferences of cancer in daily life, and perceiving a positive impact from experiencing cancer. Depressive symptoms were negatively associated with this shift. Conclusion After BC, there seems to be an important reordering of life values, with more emphasis on private life. This change is influenced by clinical determinants, but also by work-related and psychosocial factors. Implications for Cancer Survivors Stakeholders should consider this change in a patient's outlook on work-life as much as the classical physical late effects when designing post-BC programs to support RTW.
