Sažetak
The paper analyzes the role of persons with disabilities in employers and the impact and role of persons with disabilities on the labor market. The main problem faced by people with disabilities is their low representation in the labor market and discrimination by both society and employers. It is worth pointing out the unemployment of persons with disabilities, which is several times higher than the average unemployment in society, which is often the result of prejudices themselves. A working man can show and prove that he is worthy and capable of working, learning and developing, earning a living wage and thus securing a livelihood. Persons who are capable and willing to work without being given the opportunity are greatly restricted and denied not only the right to work, but other fundamental human rights. The work helps us to achieve positively valued social roles, self-esteem, enables communication with the environment, contributes to creating a positive image of ourselves and our values and is a prerequisite for self-actualization. In line with the problem, research goals have been set that are aimed at supporting the marginalized group of people, that is, people who are particularly “vulnerable” in the labor market, inorder to recognize the need to create incentives and regulations within the system that would result in a better position and greater the inclusion of people with disabilities in society. This paper analyzes the data collected from the labor market questionnaire from different employers who have different legal form, size and number of persons employed in different markets. Basic statistical methods are used in data processing. The results of the research confirm the hypotheses. Social action that will result in the necessary changes and facilitate equal participation of persons with disabilities in all areas of social life should be encouraged.
