Main benefits:
- clients may, if needed, proceed through various services in a unit like Orton Pro while the experts are co-operating with many institutions who provide for financial support for enhancing people’s work capacity, and all kinds of work providers
- prospectively this kind of operational model will be the most cost-effective both in human perspective and economically
Main problems:
- economical stagnation: employers can’t or dare not easily hire new workers; maybe only on salary support
- funding in public sector has been reduced at least partly, and that’s why institutions which send less clients to Orton Pro
- there are quite many clients who actually are disabled but don’t receive pension or compensation for disability; they are sent ex.g. to Orton Pro in hope they after all could find a work place suitable for them
- basically there are ways to enhance a client’s work capacity and help her/him to find work but in many cases complicated bureaucracy makes it difficult
Conclusion:
The benefits are already so obvious individually and economically that this kind of organising services will expand in various forms, depending of conditions in individual country.
We’ll go on!
