French to English translations [PRO]
Human Resources / handicapped workers
French term or phrase: établissement et service d'aide par le travail
I have no context, the ESAT établissement et service d'aide par le travail is a way for handicapped people to have work in a protected environment adapted to their disability.

Thank you for your help

Vocational rehabilitation is a process which enables persons with functional, psychological, developmental, cognitive and emotional impairments or health disabilities to overcome barriers to accessing, maintaining or returning to employment or other useful occupation

Vocational rehabilitation can require input from a range of health care professionals and other non-medical disciplines such as disability employment advisers and career counselors. Techniques used can include:
assessment, appraisal, program evaluation and research.
goal setting and intervention planning.
provision of health advice and promotion, in support of returning to work.
support for self-management of health conditions.
making adjustments to the medical and psychological impact of a disability.
case management, referral, and service co-ordination.
psychosocial interventions.
career counseling, job analysis, job development, and placement services.
functional and work capacity evaluations.[2]

Vocational rehabilitation practitioners are often governed by standards of practice. In the United Kingdom these are produced by the Vocational Rehabilitation Association.

Explanation:
This is a bit clunky, but I think that there is a need to reflect the fact that the CATs were replaced by ESATs in order to end the former's practice of providing rehabilitation that was not only directly work-related. A person's first year with an ESAT is devoted to assessment and so they do not have a contract of employment. Thereafter, if they are taken on for the longer term, they do have a contract of employment with the ESAT.

This is not, as far as I am aware, directly equivalent to any English-speaking country's system, so it should not be translated by substituting an non-equivalent, but handy, official term.
