Background. Occupational therapists support workers who have experienced a mental health issue in their return-to-work process, but can also support the maintenance of long-term healthy participation. Little scientific literature exists to understand this emerging role. Purpose. To describe occupational therapists’ interventions with respect to enabling workers to maintain their mental health. Method. Using a descriptive qualitative design, interviews were conducted with 19 occupational therapists working in socioprofessional rehabilitation. Findings. Occupational therapists reported to implemente 31 interventions, devided in eight categories. These interventions were mainly focused on the workers themselves; those involving the environment were less developed. Implications. The interventions described with specificity offer concrete levers that occupational therapists can use in their practice. However, research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions.

背景。职业治疗师为在重返工作岗位过程中遇到心理健康问题的工人提供支持，但也可以支持维持长期健康参与。很少有科学文献可以了解这一新兴角色。目的。描述职业治疗师在使工人保持心理健康方面的干预措施。方法。使用描述性定性设计，对 19 名从事社会职业康复工作的职业治疗师进行了访谈。发现。职业治疗师报告实施了 31 项干预措施，分为八类。这些干预主要集中在工人本身；那些涉及环境的则欠发达。影响。具体描述的干预措施提供了职业治疗师可以在实践中使用的具体杠杆。然而，需要研究来评估这些干预措施的有效性。
