[The importance of company interests in shaping occupational rehabilitation programs: empirical findings from company-based retraining].
The pilot project "Occupational Rehabilitation of Women Close to their Place of Residence" is orientated towards the dual system of vocational retraining by combining "on the job training" and "vocational theory in a vocational training school". Training on the job is one of the most important aspects in this programme, and data have therefore been gained from qualitative interviews with representatives of different firms. The results presented are based on the analysis of qualitative interviews with 13 employers involved in the pilot project. All interviewees underline: Training on the job alongside non-disabled persons is thought to offer good opportunities for lasting vocational integration since it enables trainees to grow accustomed to the conditions and demands of work and is thought likely to lead directly to employment. We discussed a range of mechanisms through which a societal obligation to train and/or employ disabled people could be implemented and highlighted the role of "rehabilitation services" which support the trainee by psychological, educational and social services and support the employer.
