Abstract

In the past several years we have done a research about the processes and the actors of workforce rehabilitation in Hungary. We have discovered some strengths and flaws of that processes, and based on that research we would like to see a turning point in the near future. We think that one of the keys of the success in the processes of the rehabilitation of workforce is the attitude of the positive psychology. Based on our researches the emotional competences and psychological immunity have been found to have very important and special roles in the personal side of the rehabilitation process. The attitude of the employers and the society to the rehabilitation is also important based also on the emotional awareness.
