Conducting assessments and observations could be your next challenge!

Steg till Arbete (STA) is a valuable and qualitative service procured by the Swedish Public Employment Service with the ultimate goal of identifying resources and support needs in a cohesive process, as well as strengthening and developing participants towards employment or education.

The target group consists of job seekers who, due to various obstacles, are far from the labor market and need individually tailored work preparation measures to approach professional life and/or start studies towards a profession. Read more about the assignment here!

We are now looking for you, an Occupational Therapist, who wants to be part of this exciting service!

You will primarily work in the northern parts of Stockholm and will schedule your workdays at various offices in the area.

Your main task will be to be responsible for conducting assessments and observations based on the following occupational therapy instruments:

• Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool (MOHOST)
• Dialog om arbetsförmåga (DOA)
• Worker Role Interview (WRI)
• Assessment of Work Characteristics (AWC)
• Assessment of Work Performance (AWP)

Responsibilities:

• Scheduling and planning our work with the participant
• Conducting competency assessments to highlight the participant's skills, conditions, and interests related to the labor market
• Conducting qualitative assessments of our participants' abilities and needs as well as performing observations under work-like conditions
• Providing support during activity performance
• Varying activities based on a specific participant's needs, focusing on duration, complexity, and language skills - related to their target profession
• Using Motivational Interviewing (MI) to highlight the participant's own resources and build trust in their abilities
