We show that in the quantum case any work distribution can be related to an equilibrium correlation function in an extended Hilbert space. As a consequence of this identification the Crooks relation is a restatement of the detailed balance principle for equilibrium correlation functions. The presented derivation serves as an alternative proof of the Crooks relation residing only on the detailed balance principle.
