The only study in Europe that compared traditional vocational rehabilitation with Individual Placement and Support (IPS) in people with psychotic and bipolar disorders clearly showed that IPS is more effective. Based on these data, this paper will review the current situation of vocational rehabilitation in Europe and analyse whether these or other research do influence the daily practice in vocational rehabilitation. Moreover, it will summarise potential for further development of Supported Employment in people with severe mental illness.
