[The job description card--a method for improved integration of the handicapped in occupational activities].

The integration of disabled individuals at their work place requires not only good educational, psychological and medical preparation but also good cooperation of the employer as contract partner. To simplify the task of the employer, a method created to serve the goals of the organization and how it structures its jobs was slightly expanded to that it can also meet the requirements of vocational rehabilitation. With the help of a computer suitable work stations are preselected from an existing inventory of available jobs. A physician examines and identifies the suitability of these jobs with the help of special descriptions which spell out demands and requirements the worker has to be able to meet. 150,000 work stations in the chemical industry were analyzed and used to prove the applicability of the procedure.
