Coaching Encounters in Rehabilitative Work Activities 2019-2020

The dataset consists of transcripts of individual coaching encounters, which focus on the promotion of employment and the day-to-day activities of vocational rehabilitation workshops. The coaching encounters are from different stages of the coaching process and the same person has typically participated in more than one recorded coaching encounter. The data collection was carried out as part of the day-to-day activities of the workshops, independent of the research project. The dataset is part of the From Margins of Labour Markets towards Empowerment? (MARTE) research project. The coaching encounters covered themes related to employment, workshop activities and coaching practices. In the individual coaching encounters between coaches and trainees, the trainee's work capacity, barriers to employment, goals and wishes were explored. These were used to formulate employment plans consisting of social and vocational rehabilitation. Main themes covered in the coaching encounters included the trainees' ability to function and manage their lives, searching for jobs, retraining, studying and personal goals. Background information included the coaching encounter's location, date, and participants. The data were organised into an easy to use HTML version at FSD. The dataset is only available in Finnish.
