Fogyatékos és megváltozott munkaképességű személyekkel kapcsolatos ismeretek összehasonlító elemzése Hajdú-Bihar megye három járásában = Comparative analysis of knowledge related to persons with disability and a reduced work capacity in three districts of Hajdú-Bihar County

Absztrakt

In recent years the Hungarian government has initiated significant steps in order to increase
the economic activity of persons with disabilities and a reduced work capacity.
Employment data from the latest national census proved its efficiency, although there is
still a considerable lag compared to the economic activity of the non-disabled population.
According to the findings of previous research the labour market integration of this disadvantaged
group is profoundly influenced not only by the accepting attitude of employers,
but also by the knowledge, view and welcoming attitude of the organisation’s employees. The present study aims at discussing partial results of a research which examines the attitudes of employees – who work in social institutions operating in three districts of Hajdú-Bihar county – towards persons with disabilities and a reduced work capacity. Based on the results we can state that academic qualification, economic activity, and the position attained in the hierarchy level influence most whether the concept of both disability and reduced work ability is known.
