Objective:
To synthesize the evidence found on the effectiveness of different types of psychotherapy aimed to reduce sickness absence in workers with depressive and/or anxiety disorder.
Material and Method:
A systematic review was performed using the electronic data base from MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, The Cochrane Library, Scopus and Web of Science
Results:
3121 patients were included. The diagnosis is made mostly based on the DSM-IV or ICD 10. In terms for the reduction of anxious/depressive symptoms after therapy, the results have varied between a maximum of 78% recovery to a minimum of 22% depending on the type of psychotherapy used. In relation to the workplace, it has been measured by the decrease in absenteeism, with a maximum reduction of 53%.
Conclusions:
The use of different types of psychotherapy in patients with depressive and/or anxiety disorders reduces absences due to illness in workers.
