Abstract

Background Cancer survivors are more likely to be unemployed than healthy controls and the risk of unemployment increases with lower socioeconomic status (Mehnert et al, 2013). According to the Atlas of Cancer in South Australia, areas of economic disadvantage often correlate with areas of poor cancer outcomes in metropolitan as well as regional South Australia. Maintenance of employment has substantial benefits to an individual in enhancing a sense of personal worth and identity as well as providing financial security (De Boer et al, 2009).
