When the specific nature of the request for support/assistance becomes clear, wecan define which means, in support of the client’s abilities, can be applied in orderto find a suitable workplace. Employment support projects are focused on findinganswers to the following two questions:– What contribution can I make to society with my labour?– What can I gain from society via my labour?During an employment support project the job coach will help the client to findanswers to these questions. Employment support is aimed at helping people, whoare distanced from the labour market, to find a suitable workplace. This requires astaged approach with respect to assessment, job finding, job creation, function andtask adjustment w<strong>here</strong> necessary, and support at the workplace. From the client’spoint of view this support in finding suitable employment is based on assistancewith the selection, acquisition and maintenance of an appropriate workplace. Inmany cases this also involves learning to abandon a disagreeable or stressful worksituation, or even forsaking cognitive skills that cannot be applied in practice.From a professional point of view this type of support can be described as theprocess that aims to develop, reinstate, maintain and expand an individual’semployment possibilities. During this process methods focused on the individual,such as employment orientation, training, mediation and job coaching, arecombined with strategies focused on the environment, such as the creation of, orimpact on, a future work situation. This description implies a dual task, i.e. on theone hand working on individual work skills, on the other hand using, or creating,auxiliary sources in the (employment) environment.The starting point for the development of an employment project is the client’sactual situation and his desires, motives, skills and possible prospects. Thedimension of social networks and backgrounds in the KIRA method has beendeveloped from the perspective of the parties (players) involved in the employmentsupport project, i.e. the client, job coach, personal and professional network.Information received from, and on, these players and the four other dimensionsresult in the creation of a Client Competency Profile (CCP).6
