[Problems of occupational paedagogy in rehabilitation (author's transl)].

Within the framework of a work science focusing on the disabled, occupational paedagogy (Arbeitspädagogik) offers- from its methods and objectives- useful approaches to the industrial resettlement of the disabled. The different models of occupational paedagogy and the experience gained from then (Taylor, Münsterberg, Moede, Baumgarten, Twi-methode, Riedel) can be easily adapted to and integrated with special requirements of vocational rehabilitation. In the light of human work valuation as an existential dimension of "Being-in-the-world", resettlement in open industry with the help of occupational paedagogy and the related measures for a job organisation suitable for the disabled, are discussed from a human ecological viewpoint. Possibilities of on-the-job-training are formulated in recommendations which are in accordance with the Johannes Riedel model of occupational paedagogy. The influence that inadequacies of general vocational training have on an invalidism before retirement emphasises the necessity of obviating the danger of excessive work demand caused by modern industrial conditions, by preventive measures of occupational paedagogy.
