Abstract

This two-part article examines the active employment policies of welfare states and their impact on the situation of persons with disabilities of working age. On the basis of research materials and data from population surveys in the EU and OECD countries, the article analyzes the trends of active employment policy towards persons with moderate and severe disabilities in welfare states of different models for the period from 2010 to 2020. The second part of the article reveals the approaches of active policy to the selection of priority groups of citizens with disabilities to direct social investments in the promotion of labor, to the redistribution of responsibilities towards employers in traditional forms of employment: special workshops and job quota systems, to the provision of social guarantees in the conditions of de-regulation of the labor market. It shows the resources of traditional forms of employment, preferences of employees and employers that influence the expansion of employment opportunities. The potential of active policy measures is considered: the possibilities of hiring workers with disabilities with different degrees of impairment and reducing unemployment, as well as the sustainability of the results of fixation in the labor market. The forms and conditions of employment of persons with disabilities in the conditions of labor market deregulation, job quality factors and the level of social guarantees are revealed. The results of active policy in achieving self-sufficiency in the transition from social security to labor and the assessment of their sustainability are presented.
