This study aimed to investigate the impact of recovery on various health aspects among olderemployees and how the different dimensions of recovery relate to health. The dimensions of recoveryinclude: psychological detachment, relaxation, mastery and control. Data were analyzed from twopublic organizations in northern Sweden, with survey responses from employees aged 55 years orolder. The methodology included factor-, mean- and regression analyses to identify the dimensions ofrecovery and understand their impact on health. The results of the study showed that psychologicaldetachment, mastery and control were positively associated with health whilst relaxation had anegative effect. Furthermore, associations were observed between health and control variables such asage, gender, education and the degree of influence in the workplace. Here, the results showed thatwomen generally reported worse health than men, a finding that is consistent with previous research.Older, highly educated individuals with high levels of influence reported better health compared toother studied groups. Respondents living together with a partner, and those that also had childrenreported better health. The study provided insights into the need for strategies when it comes topromoting health among older employees, emphasizing recovery and other factors. Limitationsincluded challenges with representativeness and difficulties in establishing causality. Further researchshould focus on gaining a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between recovery, healthand work-related factors- with a particular emphasis on investigating more organizations and sectors.
