System kwotowy a zatrudnienie osób niepełnosprawnych w Czechach i w Polsce
Quota scheme vs. employment of people with disabilities in The Czech Republic and Poland

Summary/Abstract: People with disabilities are less competitive in the labor market than non-disabled people. Employers are reluctant to hire them because they are a source of additional costs. In order to increase the interest of employers in disability an obligation is imposed to employ such persons under pain of financial penalties. Such a system is called a quota scheme and is used in many countries, including Poland and the Czech Republic. In Poland quota scheme is more effective than in the Czech Republic. This is due to higher fees and the inevitability of payments, than is in the Czech Republic. Polish employers who do not employ disabled persons have to pay much higher fees to the State Fund for Rehabilitation of the Disabled People than employers in the Czech Republic.
