Objective
The course provides you with the skills to use the WEIS-FI assessment method for evaluating the work environment, which helps you collect information about the psychosocial and physical factors in the work environment and find out about the interviewee's experiences of how these factors affect their job satisfaction and well-being at work. You will learn to identify rehabilitation needs related to returning to work and how the work environment affects a person's work ability and performance, as well as how to use a customer-oriented assessment method. You will strengthen the reliability and credibility of your assessment skills. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
