Through personalized assistance and follow-up, the service aims to help individuals to avoid professional exclusion, to provide accessible information, and to encourage networking between healthcare professionals and services specializing in job retention and vocational rehabilitation. In total, 1,392 calls have been received since the service opened in 2006, with most calls dealing with employment, income and legal matters and a range of psychological counseling issues. More than half of the proposed solutions have proved successful.

The service also provides specifically-tailored information about legal procedures relating to professional integration and vocational rehabilitation.
