 title = {Health promotion for unemployed jobseekers: New developments in Germany},
 abstract = {AbstractObjectives The objective of the paper is to present findings from a health promotion programme for long-term unemployed older job seekers in Germany and to discuss conditions for successful linking health and employment promotion. Methods Implementation analysis: interviews with actors who implemented the programme and case studies of job centres where the programme took place. Results Health promotion with labour market programmes is possible, but requires (a) agreements and coordination between different branches of social security, (b) an enlargement of the dominant activation paradigm in labour market policy with a stronger emphasis on voluntary programme participation, (c) skills and competencies of the staff in job centres as well as an adapted work organization. Conclusions Efforts to connect health and employment promotion and to induce the related social security's to cooperation are still in their infancy. Further practical steps as well as research and evaluation are necessary to bring these areas together.},
