Abstract
Abstract: Aims: Unemployment is a common problem among people with substance use disorders. Aim of this feasibility study is to explore possible positive effects of a new intervention to increase the integration of unemployed people with substance use disorders into the labour market. Methods: A prospective, non-controlled longitudinal study with four measurement points and mixed-methods-design will be conducted to check feasibility of a novel intervention. The primary outcome of the study is the reintegration of job seekers with substance use disorders into working life, secondary outcomes are substance use, point abstinence, work-related self-management and the subjective impairment. Conclusion: The concept of an outpatient work-orientated rehabilitation, with the collaboration of different actors can be successful as a possible way of addiction rehabilitation in practice. Should the intervention turn out to be feasible, then the evaluation should proceed to the next step and an effectiveness study (e. g. randomized controlled trial) should be planned.
