  1. All sensitivity analyses considered societal perspective. SUR: Seemingly unrelated regressions. Dominated: Intervention was more costly and less effective. Bold letters refer to statistically significant differences between groups. a Minimum daily wage is maintained as unit cost for sick leave in this sensitivity analysis. b Only adjusted by baseline costs or effects. cConfidence interval in cost when CVR is consider as effect is (− 16.21; 275.85). dConfidence interval calculated based on bootstrapping. NA: Not applicable due to the outcome not being a continuous variable
