Summary

This study looks at people with musculoskeletal conditions (like back or joint problems) who take part in a work-specific rehabilitation program called RehaJET. The goal is to see whether a 3-week or a 4-week program leads to better work ability and job outcomes. Researchers will compare the two groups to find out if the extra week makes a difference.
