Experiences of people in work
Key points from three interviews, with links to the full text.
For jobseekers
The four steps below draw on interviews with three people in employment.
1
Identify your skills and needs
Write down what you do well and the support you need in advance.
2
Discuss your needs with the employer
Explain from the outset what you can and cannot do. One interview participant described their needs to management in writing. Workplace adjustments included ramps, toilet grab rails, wheelchair-accessible desks, lighter doors and flexible hours.
3
Prepare for job interviews
Practice expressing yourself confidently. If you are unsuccessful, identify the experience or skills you lacked and seek relevant training, meetings or volunteering opportunities.
4
Look for job information
One participant mainly found vacancies on social media. Another learned about a job while taking part in a training program.

Experiences of people in work

For employers
Key points from the organization's recommendations for employers. Download the full 11 recommendations below.
1
Ask the candidate about their needs
Ask the person directly what adjustments are needed. Interview participants' workplaces were adapted after they discussed and documented their needs.
2
Make the workplace accessible
Adapt the workplace, entrance and toilets to the employee's needs and provide necessary equipment. Do not overlook travel to and from work.
3
Agree on appropriate support together
Assign a mentor, arrange short vocational training and provide disability awareness training for colleagues. Seek advice and cooperation from a specialist organization if needed.

“One of Us” series
A program about people with disabilities in employment and the organizations employing them. Produced jointly by MNCD entertainment and the General Authority for Development of Persons with Disabilities. Videos open on Facebook.
A video introduction to the topic
An online lesson prepared in 2020. It cites 2017–2018 statistics and legal provisions in force at that time, so it is not current information. Check the Law and Legal Rights page for current provisions.

Employment of people with disabilities: statistics and legal information
The organization's online lesson (2020). Its slides explain the number of people with disabilities, employment conditions, job quotas, the legal framework and barriers to work.
Main topics in the video
- Statistics on the number of people with disabilities and employment (0:43, 2:49).
- Employment quotas and compliance (8:25).
- Legal framework: Labor Law and Law on Employment Promotion (11:13–13:19).
- Barriers identified in a sample survey: judgments based on appearance, lack of experience, inaccessible infrastructure and discrimination (20:19).
Volunteering and part-time work
Employment and volunteering are different. Volunteering means contributing to the organization's events and activities by choice.
The FAQ recommends calling to register interest in volunteering or part-time work at the center. This page does not advertise a separate program or recruitment process, so ask by telephone or send a question about current opportunities.
