Monitoring and Scientific Evaluation of the Pilot Project ‘Linkage between Promotion of Employment and Promotion of Health in the Community Setting’

In the project „Linkage between Promotion of Employment and Promotion of Health in the Community Setting “ job centres/employment agencies as well as the statutory health insurance funds work together to encourage unemployed people to participate in prevention and health promotion services. The three institutes IGES, IAW and SOKO were commissioned by the Federal Centre for Health Education (BZgA) to jointly conduct the scientific accompanying research and evaluation of this project.
Within the framework of the evaluation project, the structures and processes relevant for the implementation of the project were examined on site at the approximately 120 locations of the model phase 2018/2019; in addition, an analysis of the effects of the project was carried out with regard to the target group of unemployed people.
Further information and the central results of the evaluation are summarised in a brochure of the GKV-Spitzenverband (in German), which can be accessed here:
