Information about service

Submit a valid medical report or other medical document to the employment authority on an illness or disability affecting your work ability. The employment authority will assess whether your illness or disability reduces your chances of getting a job, retaining a job or progressing at work.

When you are about to be employed by a large employer, ask the employment authority for a certificate of partial work ability.

If you wish, you can submit the certificate to your employer at the beginning of the employment relationship.

You can obtain a certificate for a jobseeker with partial work ability if

  • you are an unemployed jobseeker in the employment services of your area
  • you have an illness or disability diagnosed by a physician that, according to the employment authority’s assessment, reduces your chances of getting a job, maintaining a job or progressing at work.

You can request a certificate for a jobseeker with partial work ability when you are about to be employed by a large employer. The certificate is valid for five years from the date of signature. The certificate cannot be issued retrospectively.
