Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate whether cognitive job accommodation intervention enhances return to work, work ability and performance after ischemic stroke in working-age population. The main questions are:

* Does the cognitive job accommodation intervention affect absenteeism and presenteeism after stroke?
* Does the intervention affect work ability and perceived cognitive and emotional difficulties at work?
* Does the intervention decrease mental strain, fatigue and negative mood symptoms after return to work?
* Does the intervention affect life satisfaction among the stroke patients returning to work?

Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group returning to work after stroke with current healthcare practices and work procedures.

Participants:

* At baseline, 6 and 12 month follow-up web-based questionnaires and cognitive tests are administered.
* At 3 month follow-up participants fill in Brain Work Questionnaire (BWQ) that measures cognitive demands and difficulties at work.
