    Abstract:
    Psychiatric clinics report great difficulties in motivating patients, on successful completion of medical rehabilitation and vocational therapy, to file an application for vocational rehabilitation. And if they do so, the mentally ill persons more frequently then other disabled persons break off the vocational rehabilitation measures taken. After a two year discussion process, a study group in Berlin (West), which consisted of representatives of different institutions involved in vocational rehabilitation, have published a memorandum stating the central obstacles for mentally ill persons to enter and remain in a "Workshop for Disabled." Proposals are made how to improve the situation.
