BEM Representative: All about training

The pme Familienservice has been successfully supporting employers for many years in the implementation of legally prescribed company integration management (BEM). It is now expanding its service with the training of BEM officers in companies. BEM expert Christiane Weidemann introduces the new service. 

According to SGB IX, all employers are obliged to offer company integration management (BEM) regardless of their number of employees and are responsible for implementing the procedure. The pme Familienservice supports employers in establishing a target-oriented, respectful and well-established BEM process within the company. We have been conducting BEM consultations for various companies with their employees for several years now. 

With the new training course to become a BEM case supervisor at pme Familienservice , you can put company integration management in your company on a firm footing. In four compact modules, we make your employees fit for the professional support of sick employees.

What are BEM officers?

BEM case supervisors control and coordinate the entire company integration management process in the company and help to successfully reintegrate sick employees and overcome incapacity to work.

Among other things, they perform the following tasks:

  • They manage the necessary measures that the person concerned needs for reintegration and to maintain their health or job. For example, they provide support in applying for rehabilitation or give tips on gradual reintegration.
  • They coordinate with the parties involved, such as managers, the works council or representatives for severely disabled employees, and moderate round-table discussions. 
  • They take over the coordination with service providers such as health insurance or pension insurance.
  • They take care of all the formal documents required for the BEM and keep the BEM file.

On request, the pme Familienservice supports and accompanies the BEM case supervisors in their tasks after successful training with case discussions and in-depth seminars. 

The benefits for you as an employer

  • Well-trained BEM case supervisors contribute immensely to a healthier company
  • The BEM is more likely to be accepted if it is carried out by trustworthy colleagues rather than the manager or HR manager.
