Description

The Federal Employment Agency is the rehabilitation provider insofar as no other rehabilitation provider is responsible. It is also the rehabilitation provider for persons with disabilities who are looked after by job centres. However, the special feature here is that there are shared responsibilities between the Federal Employment Agency and the job centres for the provision of services for occupational participation.

If the Federal Employment Agency is not itself obliged to do so, you as the measure provider must register all participants for social insurance and pay social insurance contributions during the measure. In concrete terms, this involves contributions to

• health insurance,
• pension insurance,
• unemployment insurance, if applicable, and
• nursing care insurance.

The employment agency or the job centre will reimburse you for the social insurance contributions paid, depending on your responsibility for benefits.

You will receive the money monthly in arrears for the entire time the measure is running, as soon as you have submitted an application.

How high the reimbursement contributions can be depends on which measure for participation in working life it is and which personal requirements are met. For guidance, you can refer to the "Table of reimbursement contributions for vocational rehabilitation measures", which the Federal Employment Agency has agreed with the Central Association of Statutory Health Insurance (GKV SV).

• Be legally obligated to make the social insurance declaration and pay the social insurance contributions,

Furthermore, social insurance contributions can only be paid for measures for participation in working life that are funded by the Employment Agency or the Job Centre.
