Sažetak
A survey was conducted among persons with the health disorders considered to be aggravating factors in finding employment, who were on the list of the unemployed registered with a regional employment bureau. In 1994/1995 forty persons were selected and examined by a vocational guidance learn. The team included a psychologist, a pedagogue, an occupational health specialist, a legal advisor and the employment bureau officer. The criteria were based on the health disorders that are contraindicative for an occupation, on the length of unemployment, time of onset of disease or disability, social status, satisfactory residual work capacity for another occupation, job opportunity and on the person's motivation for work, retraining, earning additional qualifications or for schooling. Results demonstrate that investing in vocational guidance is justified it negative selection as well as a futile loss of time, money and effort spent on schooling are to be avoided. The programme of retraining, additional training and finding an occupation in accordance with one's residual work capacity continues to be applicable only in the case of a newly diagnosed disease, newly inflicted injury or wound as well as a useful and humane method in the work of employment bureaus and vocational guidance teams.
