Vocational rehabilitation - National Insurance

Vocational rehabilitation is intended for a person before retirement age, for whom a medical committee has determined a permanent weighted medical disability of at least 20%. A rehabilitation program may include occupational diagnosis, professional training and job placement (sometimes the program only includes placement).

Therefore, if you have been determined to have a medical disability of at least 20%, you do not work, due to the impairment, but are interested in working and you need professional training to integrate or return to work in the open labor market. And also, you are able to cooperate in the process of professional rehabilitation and integrate as a regular employee in the open labor market. You can apply to check your eligibility and suitability for a rehabilitation program at the National Insurance branch in your area of ​​residence. A person who is not suitable for vocational rehabilitation, the possibility of transferring his eligibility for rehabilitation to his spouse will be examined, on the condition that the spouse lives permanently with the disabled person, and is paid an addition to the disabled person's disability allowance, and has not yet reached retirement age.
