Development of possible supervisors actions to support the sustainable return to work of workers who have suffered from work-related musculoskeletal disorders Abstract Musculoskeletal disorders remain a major occupational health problem in industrialized countries. The consequences of a workplace disability are a substantial burden for organizations, workers and their families. The research on measures to prevent long-term disability demonstrates the importance of the involvement and cooperation of all stakeholders in the healthcare system, insurance providers and business.This research will study the return-to-work process in an enterprise, with the primary objective of suggesting courses of action that will help workers’ supervisors prevent long-term disability.This activity will contribute to a better understanding of the role of supervisor in the sustained prevention of long-term workplace disabilities. The courses of action to take could be the subject of a larger project of validation and coaching in various contexts and sectors of activity. Ultimately, the results will contribute to helping workers to return to and remain at work following a musculoskeletal disorder.
