The situation of employment of the disabled in Lower Silesia

Summary/Abstract: This article is an attempt to analyse information about the employment of the disabled in Lower Silesia in the years 2004–2013. The work is based on statistical data provided by PFRON as well as, in part, public statistics from Central Statistical Office for the same period. Due to the fact that these institutions used different methods in gathering information, the pictures they provide are incomplete and, more importantly, sometimes confliicting. There are unfortunately few sources of collected research for the region, which is why new tests and analysis are needed. The article presents the most important results of one of these tests, an attempt to establish the number and characteristics of the disabled working in socially provided jobs in Lower Silesia, showing the barriers that limit their work activity. It also suggests solutions from social politics in regard to the disabled which would be tools in the battle against social exclusion.
