Young rehabilitants at the transition from vocational training to the labour Market

This study answers the question, whether and to what extent labour market integration is achieved by young rehabilitants participating in an apprenticeship provided by the Federal Employment Agency. In order to identify salient determinants for the entry into as well as the sustainability of first employment, event history analyses are applied. After a relatively short period, first integrated rehabilitants mostly find unsubsidised employment.

The entry into employment is determined by factors similar to those influencing the labour market transition of young adults without disabilities: higher educational achievements, a successfully completed apprenticeship at best within an establishment, high regional mobility and good structural conditions favour labour market integration. Furthermore, physically disabled graduates and those with shorter unemployment and sickness periods stay longer in first employment than graduates showing other disabilities and those with longer periods in unemployment and sickness.
