Cancer survivors returning to work often experience what issue?

Increased opportunities for promotion
Reduced opportunity for advancement
Higher wages
Less stress at work

The correct answer is: Reduced opportunity for advancement

Cancer survivors returning to work frequently encounter reduced opportunities for advancement. This phenomenon can stem from various factors, including the stigma surrounding their health status and potential biases from employers who may perceive them as less reliable or capable due to their medical history. Additionally, the survivor may find themselves facing challenges when reintegrating into the workforce, such as having gaps in their employment history or needing to adjust to changes in workplace dynamics, which can hinder their career progression. While increased opportunities for promotion, higher wages, and less stress at work might be ideal scenarios for any returning worker, cancer survivors often face a unique set of challenges that can restrict their upward mobility within the organization.
