Benefits for social participation in statutory accident insurance

Social participation benefits are automatically determined and provided as soon as there are indications that participation in social life is or will be endangered or restricted. No application is necessary.

This is often done as part of the rehabilitation management process. Your employers' liability insurance association or accident insurance fund will hold a personal discussion with you in order to be able to identify and correctly assess your individual needs in a timely and comprehensive manner.

You can also contact your Berufsgenossenschaft or Unfallkasse online or by mail.
