MS registry: MS & Work, Social lnsurance

This substudy of the Swiss MS Registry will analyze different aspects of work and MS, including work retention, workspace modifications, or eligibility for social insurance. Its primary aim is a cross-sectional description of the status quo. A subsequent analysis will also investigate factors that permit persons with MS to stay in the workforce (e.g. changes to work place or job function).
