Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the need for legislative measures to implement the universal right to work proclaimed by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as a means of expanding their social inclusion. It declares the lack of efforts to implement it, which hinders people with mental and intellectual disabilities in particular to work. It is proposed to legalize the concept of Labor capacity in order to provide opportunity for all persons to work despite the lack of civil capacity. The article analyzes the suitability of the existing mechanisms in the labor legislation for ensuring protection of the labor of the particular person with disabilities.
