IPS has been used clinically in the addiction field, but has been subject to little research. The trial "From addiction to employment" is a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of an IPS intervention on employment outcome among substance use disorder patients in specialized health care treatment in Oslo, Norway. The study is conducted at the Department for Substance Use Disorder Treatment at Oslo University Hospital.
