Professional rehabilitation can be offered to a person who is either entering the workforce or has been absent from it for a long time or who is finding it hard to cope with work and is therefore in danger of becoming incapable for work.
If a person with diabetes is struggling to cope with work, the need for basic training, further training or retraining as well as the opportunities for implementing it are established. Professional rehabilitation funded by the employee pension institution is a statutory benefit. If necessary, the employee pension institution will refer the person to rehabilitation provided by Kela.
