As a rule, rehabilitation programmes provided at state psychiatric hospitals and sheltered workshops in the Federal Republic of Germany suffer from a lack of training possibilities for patients from commercial, administrative and clerical occupations. The situation is the same for school pupils and students. With the introduction of a work therapy concentrating on clerical activities into the rehabilitation programme of a psychiatric hospital, patients from jobs requiring particular intellectual skills can benefit from an appropriate and graded programme designed to re-develop previously trained skills, orient in a new occupational field and provide the opportunity of trying out jobs. In particular cases this therapy also assumes the function of a useful form of occupational therapy and enlarges the range of available occupational and work therapeutic methods.
通常情况下，德意志联邦共和国的州立精神病院和庇护工场提供的康复项目，缺乏针对从事商业、行政和文书工作的患者的培训机会。学生的情况也是如此。随着一项专注于文书活动的工作疗法被引入一家精神病院的康复项目中，来自需要特定智力技能工作的患者能够从一个经过适当分级的项目中受益，该项目旨在重新培养先前训练的技能、适应新的职业领域并提供尝试工作的机会。在特定情况下，这种疗法还承担着一种有益的职业疗法形式的功能，并扩大了可用的职业和工作治疗方法的范围。
