Professional rehabilitation from the perspective of worker with a mental disorder: a qualitative study. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.3, pp.343-352. Epub 20-Dic-2021.

Introduction:
Workers who present different deficiencies in their body structures and functions must go through different processes to maintain a productive activity. People with work-related mental disorders are no exception and tend to have more difficulty being included.
Objective:
To describe the experience of a worker with a work-related mental disorder during the professional rehabilitation process in Colombia.
Material and Methods:
Qualitative phenomenological study with an interpretive approach. Data collection was carried out in 2020 through a semi-structured interview and subsequent analysis by categories, themes and patterns.
Results:
The experience of workers with mental disorders is closely linked or determined by access to timely services. The professional rehabilitation process is constituted as a protector of the work role; however, support networks can drastically influence.
Conclusions:
The professional rehabilitation process is decisive in the cases of workers with work-related mental disorders since it provides the necessary tools to strengthen and provides strategies that allow the worker to maintain their work role.
