76 Chapter 3 regular health care, which could make it harder to include health professionals from outside the workplace. In this study only stakeholders from the workplace were invited to participate in the focus groups, as their needs on how to adapt the PA were considered most relevant to consider for an intervention that will be implemented at the workplace. Nevertheless, adding views of professionals from outside the workplace on how to involve them in the intervention, could further improve the implementation of the intervention. Whether it is actually feasible in practice to involve stakeholders from outside the workplace needs to be further investigated. Third, OHPs may also experience time as a barrier to implement the intervention in occupational health practice. Following the steps of the PA is a very timeconsuming process (58, 67). Nevertheless, the elaborated process of the PA gives OHPs the opportunity to get a complete overview of the worker and gain the workers’ trust in their guidance (58). Gain the workers trust was mentioned as an important factor in this study for discussing health problems, especially for problems from outside the workplace. In this study different OHPs, which may vary in their possibilities to implement the Grip on Health intervention, will be trained to implement the intervention. Thereby, the pilot implementation study can provide more information on which type of OHPs would be most suitable for the implementation of this intervention, how much time is needed for the implementation of the intervention and whether implementation of this intervention is feasible. Conclusion IM was a valuable tool for adaption of the PA to workers with a low SEP to improve their work functioning and health from a broader perspective. The IM provided information on which adaptations were needed to solve problems on multiple life domains that affect healthy functioning at work. This resulted in the Grip on Health intervention that is specifically tailored to workers with a low SEP and considers the interconnection between work and non-work-related determinants for work functioning and health. This intervention will be evaluated in a pilot implementation study to further explore whether and how this intervention fits in occupational health practice.
