The Cancer and Work website was designed to address the unique needs of cancer survivors with returning, remaining, changing work or looking for work after a diagnosis of cancer. The website provides newly created information, resources, and interactive tools for cancer survivors, healthcare providers, employers, and highlights helpful information from across the globe.

April-Mai 2025

We invite you to participate in the Employer Survey on Best Practices for Return to Work after Cancer, conducted in partnership with Cancer and Work and the Coalition Priorité Cancer au Québec. This survey aims to gather insights from employers to better understand the challenges faced when supporting employees returning to work after cancer, with the goal of informing policy recommendations to improve workplace support. Your participation is entirely anonymous and confidential, and the survey, consisting of 40 questions, should take approximately 15 minutes to complete, with the option to save your progress and return later. The findings will be presented at the May 29-30, 2025 symposium in Montreal, where you are welcome to join the discussion if interested. For more information, please contact [email protected].
