Operational Integration Management (OIM) - German: Betriebliches Eingliederungsmanagement (BEM)
People with a protracted or chronic illness often find it particularly difficult in the world of work. To counteract this, the legislature in Germany has taken it upon itself to offer all employees who have been unable to work for more than six weeks in the past twelve months an Operational Integration Management - in German "Betriebliches Eingliederungsmanagement" (BEM). In doing so, the legislature transfers part of the responsibility for the health of the employees in terms of prevention, health promotion and rehabilitation to the specific department.
There is a service agreement at TU Dresden from 10th December 2009 concerning BEM. This stipulates that an integration team shall accompany BEM at TU Dresden. The integrations team is composed of the liaison officer for employees, representatives of the interest groups and the employees entitled to BEM.
The team openly searches for and discusses measures - tailor-made for the individual employees - conducive to helping staff find their way back into working life and to maintaining health, employability and permanent employment.
As part of BEM, the following questions can be answered: Can I continue working at my current workplace in the future in the same way as before? Are changes in work organisation or in the workplace itself necessary so that I can remain healthy in the long term? Who can support me on my return? And what is the best way to return?
Participation in BEM is voluntary.
BEM-Representatives in the Occupational Health Services are:
- Dipl.-Psych. Annett Schneider
- Dipl.-Psych. Maxi Paulus
The integration team is completed by the representatives of the staff council:
- Angela Einert
- Andreas Mathias
- Christian Pritzkow
and, if required, a representative of the severely disabled:
- Roberto Lemmrich
- Depute persons.
Furthermore you can involve a trusted person, e.g. a relative, a translator or other supporters in BEM. We ask you to announce this when making the appointment.
