Employment of disabled people - how realistic it is

If to translate a word "invalid" from Latin, it means - the weak, incapable, unsuitable. Even in recent times (the Soviet period) about the disabled, about their lives, needs, they were almost never mentioned, as if they did not exist at all.

To date, the situation has changed dramatically, gradually began to create conditions for the normal life of these people. Buildings of state institutions, shops are provided with ramp Or at least a call to call an employee. A law has appeared to ensure the employment of disabled people.

If you take, for example, the UK, then there the disabled person's job is taken under the control of social services. It does not even matter what physical limitations a person has. For seriously ill people, work at home is organized, and for those who work outside the home, special transportation is provided. All this is carried out at the expense of the state.

The employment of disabled people in Russia in recent years began to gain momentum, especially when it became possible to have free access to the Internet. Today, even on the job search sites, there is a section "remote work", it is possible to find work in their specialty, for example, to keep the organization's accounts.

Remote work has a number of positive factors. The most important thing is that it is work at home. For people who can not move independently, this is very important. Work at home is done at a time when it is convenient for a disabled person, when his state of health allows. And very important is the psychological moment when a person feels that he needs someone and is useful.

Unfortunately, the employment of disabled people (the procedure itself) has many complexities and peculiarities. Therefore, the number of entrepreneurs willing to take a disabled person to work is not too big. The employer does not just have to take the disabled person to work, he must organize his workplace, the work should not be heavy, and the working day should be a certain number of hours.

In general, according to the legislation, if the organization employs more than 100 people, then there is a quota of jobs for the disabled. The employment of disabled people is a certain percentage of the average number of employees, but this should not be less than 2%. For Moscow, this quota is 4%.

Legislatively, the employment of disabled persons provides for the following duties for the employer:

- to allocate or create the necessary number of jobs for people with disabilities;

- create the necessary working conditions, according to the individual rehabilitation program (IRP), for each disabled person;

- in a timely manner, provide the information that is needed to organize the employment of people with disabilities.

If a person is refused employment only because he is disabled, then this is a direct violation of the law, which entails an administrative fine imposed on officials. Such a fine can not be imposed on those employers who will prove that they did not take the disabled person to work solely because of the discrepancy of his business qualities.

Work for disabled people in Moscow and other large cities is more real than in a small town or district center. For example, in Moscow, a hair salon has been created, where masters work, who are disabled by hearing. And with home work there things are simpler, the necessary details are delivered by the courier and they also take the finished products. For the disabled, who live somewhere in the outback, the most optimal option is remote work via the Internet, or using the mail of Russia.
