Training Report : June 27, 2008 PM : Process of Vocational Rehabilitation

Now that the participants understand the overall process of rehabilitation, in the afternoon, Mr. Yoshihiko NONAKA, another Planning Committee Members, gave a lecture on the Process of Vocational Rehabilitation.
Firstly Mr. Nonaka explained about 4 steps of vocational rehabilitation and main services. These four steps are (1) Counseling on Finding Employment, Vocational Assessment, (2) Preparation, Training for Work, (3) Employment Searching, Job Placement, (4) Work adjustment → Fruitful Life through Work.
Then he talked about the employment situation of persons with disabilities in Japan as well as the organizations/institutions which provide employment support to persons with disabilities. He introduced the Employment Quota System and the Levy and Grant System. In some of the participants' countries, they have quota systems but not levy and grant system. At the end Mr. Nonaka explained what process persons with disabilities take to get job placement. The participants now have clearer understanding of vocational rehabilitation.
