The people <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>dividual placement and support programme (IPS) obta<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

greater probability of competitive employment, some type of paid work, higher levels of<br />

satisfaction, longer duration of the employment than those people where the job did not<br />

co<strong>in</strong>cide with their preferences 187 .<br />

There is strong evidence that SE (<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g SE-IPS) is superior to PVT <strong>in</strong> Improv<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

expectations of competitive employment and hours worked per week 165 .<br />

The SE-IPS models speed up the possibility of obta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g a first job and double the time<br />

worked per year, ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g the competitive work <strong>for</strong> longer 186 .<br />

People <strong>in</strong> sheltered employment worked more hours <strong>in</strong> competitive work than those who<br />

Sheltered employment programmes are necessary <strong>for</strong> people with SMI who express their<br />

desire to return to work or get a first job. Programmes based on placement models are<br />

recommended, with a short prelim<strong>in</strong>ary tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g period, immediate placement, and with<br />

frequent <strong>in</strong>dividual support.<br />

Sheltered employment programmes aimed at search<strong>in</strong>g <strong>for</strong> normalised employment must<br />

not be the only programmes related to labour activity that are offered to people with SMI.<br />

It would be recommendable <strong>for</strong> the psychosocial rehabilitation centres that look after<br />

people with SMI and diagnosis of schizophrenia and related disorders, to <strong>in</strong>clude employment<br />

<strong>in</strong>tegration programmes.<br />

When employment <strong>in</strong>sertion programmes are offered to people with SMI, the preferences<br />

on the type of job to be carried out must be assessed and taken <strong>in</strong>to account.<br />

For people with SMI and diagnosis of schizophrenia and related disorders, who has a history<br />

of previous job failure, it would be advisable to <strong>in</strong>corporate cognitive rehabilitation<br />

as a part of the employment programmes they are go<strong>in</strong>g to participate <strong>in</strong>.<br />

The mental health teams, <strong>in</strong> coord<strong>in</strong>ation with the <strong>in</strong>stitutions and other social agents<br />

<strong>in</strong>volved, must advise about all types of employment resources, aimed at ga<strong>in</strong>ful occupation<br />

and production, and adapted to the local employment opportunities. Likewise, they<br />

must be orientated towards <strong>in</strong>terventions that put <strong>in</strong>to motion different devices adapted<br />

to the needs and to the ability level of people with SMI, to <strong>in</strong>crease stable and productive<br />

occupation expectations.<br />
