  • Social Policy

Background:

  • The Social Insurance Institution Rehabilitation Act of 1991 established the working capacity sustaining and improving training programme (TYK).
  • This initiative targets older workers and employees to maintain their physio-psycho-social competences.
  • The programme integrates in-house rehabilitation and workplace training phases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the early implementation status of the TYK programme.
  • To evaluate the initial outcomes of participants in the TYK programme.

Main Methods:

  • The study describes the TYK programme during its initial phase.
  • Outcomes were assessed two years after program entry.

Main Results:

  • Two years post-entry, 17 patients were employed.
  • Six patients were on sick leave, three were unemployed, and 16 were on pension.
  • Six patients' outcomes could not be determined.

Conclusions:

  • The TYK programme demonstrates varied initial impacts on older workers' employment status.
  • Further long-term evaluation is needed to fully assess the programme's effectiveness in sustaining working capacity.
