Do you need help creating a rehabilitation plan?
You can get a job coach to assist you if you need support in planning rehabilitation. The job coach helps you consider work tasks and professions suitable for your health. The job coach is familiar with the job market and educational opportunities in your area. They monitor and support the implementation of your rehabilitation and act as your contact with Elo. If job coaching does not lead to rehabilitation or employment, the job coach will guide you to other services.
How do I get a job coach?
- Once you have received a positive preliminary decision on vocational rehabilitation, you can request a job coach for yourself in our Online Service under the Rehabilitation section in the Rehabilitation plan.
- Job coaches work in our partner companies. An expert on work ability from Elon will contact you if necessary before ordering a job coach.
- We will provide the job coach with basic information about you, such as your contact details.
- The job coach will contact you within two weeks.
How is job coaching implemented?
Meetings with the job coach can be face-to-face, by phone, or via video calls. The number of meetings is individual. You can influence the success of vocational rehabilitation with your own activity and commitment.
Is visiting a job coach free of charge?
Visiting a job coach is free of charge for you. You can apply for travel reimbursement for visits to the job coach through our online service. The payment of the rehabilitation allowance begins when the rehabilitation, such as a work trial or training, starts.
