Vocational rehabilitation

Sometimes your health and ability to work may decline to the point where you cannot continue in your job as before. You can receive help from Elo's vocational rehabilitation if you are unable to manage your tasks due to illness or injury and are at risk of disability. Elo's vocational rehabilitation can also assist when you return to work from a rehabilitation subsidy.

Elo's vocational rehabilitation offers a range of means to support continuing in or returning to work. These methods include workplace rehabilitation, such as work trials and work coaching, support for entrepreneurship and education. You can receive assistance from a work coach in selecting and planning the most suitable means for you.

You can apply for Elo's vocational rehabilitation in our Online Service. The service also allows you to manage other rehabilitation matters easily and quickly.
