Abstract

People with disabilities represent an important social category inadequate used on the labor market in Romania, which generates losses for both labor market and for these people who are isolated and forced to live in poverty. Many employers are reluctant to hire such a person, even where the law requires it when the employers exceed 50, and prefer to pay the amounts required by the state. Although there is much work for these people, however the number of hiring people with disabilities remains quite small, due to the fact that employers must invest in job accessibility, which means additional costs for the employers.
