Disability pension for young adults is a time-limited form of benefit for young adults with a long-term reduction in work capacity. It is granted individuals where a reduction in work capacity can be expected to last for at least one year. The benefit can be granted when the individual turns 19, up until the month before the month the person turns 30. Despite the disability pension being a time-limited benefit, many young adults continue to receive the benefit until they turn 30. When the individual is no longer entitled to disability pension, they are able to apply for sickness compensation. The purpose of the disability pension – beyond providing financial security in the event of reduced work capacity – is to encourage young people to be involved in activities during the period in which they receive the benefit. The idea is that the activities will have a positive impact on the person’s functional ability and improve work capacity. Only a few studies have been conducted into what activities carried out within peoples disability pension. This means there is a lack of knowledge about what activities are offered and if the activities meet the intentions. A previous study has revealed that only a few people participate in activities. The study showed that the activities do not, in the way to be expected, lead to young adults approaching the labour market. The fact that taking part in activities is voluntary also means that young adults bear a great responsibility to actually take part. In this context, it is important to note that these people have varying capabilities when it comes to taking the initiative to participate in activities. Many have diagnoses whereby symptoms include social difficulties or difficulties taking initiative. In this project, Social Insurance office in Skellefteå and Urkraft, want to work together to find common solutions to increase the likelihood that the individual regain stability on the labour market. As the range of possible activities is strongly limited, we therefore want to investigate and develop a range of preparatory activities as a prelude to work-oriented rehabilitation, workplace-related activities or studies. What should a first motivational effort be? In the project we will also develop a clear plan for monitoring the results of each activity. (Swedish)
