Adapting Vocational Rehabilitation for a Transforming Labour Market


In a rapidly changing landscape, traditional methods of vocational rehabilitation are no longer sufficient. We specialize in adaptive programs for individuals affected by climate change, technological shifts, precarious work, and the gig economy.

Challenges Faced by Various Populations

Climate Change & Ecological Disasters

Individuals impacted by climate change and ecological crises face unique employment challenges. Natural disasters and climate-related events like wildfires and floods often necessitate geographic relocation and specialized job retraining. Our programs aim to help individuals successfully reintegrate into stable work environments in the face of these environmental adversities.

Technological Change and Artificial Intelligence

As artificial intelligence and technological advancements accelerate, entire job sectors are at risk of obsolescence. Our vocational rehabilitation programs prioritize proactive, adaptable re-skilling pathways to align individuals with the rapidly evolving job market.

Precarious Work

In a labor market increasingly characterized by precarious employment—work that is insecure, unstable, and lacks benefits—our initiatives are designed to provide long-term strategies for sustained vocational rehabilitation, taking into account factors like income instability and limited access to employer benefits.

Gig Economy

The gig economy, facilitated by digital platforms, includes a broad array of short-term, temporary, and freelance occupations. Challenges facing these workers range from income instability to a lack of collective bargaining rights. We offer tailored rehabilitation solutions to meet the unique demands of this sector.
