Abstract
The programme in a rehabilitation unit is described, with special emphasis on the role of work for chronic patients. Features include the "ladder-principle" approach to the patients' activity, the reorganization of payments and the use of hostels in the community as a way to discharge for patients achieving the higher levels both in salaries and resocialization. Two basic rules with predictive value are tentatively established: 1) middle-aged patients have the best rehabilitative prospects, 2) results of the rehabilitation process are in inverse proportion to the length of previous unemployment.
