title: [Rehabilitation of foreign workers from the viewpoint of the foreign police authorities].
abstract: When speaking of rehabilitation of a foreign worker who has fallen victim to an accident or an illness, it is important to ask one fundamental question: Should he be reintegrated in the society of his host country or in his home country? The Swiss foreign police authorities play a decisive role in answering this question. Whether a residence permit should be granted, extended or denied depends on their considerations. For this purpose, all decisions taken by the cantonal authorities are based on particularly significant discretionary powers guaranteed by the Swiss legislation on foreigners. Numerous factors are determining for the evaluation of a case. Often, it is difficult to find the appropriate overview for circumstances, so that a sound and farsighted approach is essential, which-for its part-requires a constructive cooperation of all parties involved.
