A inserção da pessoa com deficiência no mercado formal de trabalho: um relato de experiências no setor comercial do Espírito Santo

Abstract

This article exposes the discussion regarding the quota system imposed on private companies by Law 8,213 / 91, in which it aims to insert people with disabilities into the labor market. Thus, the issues of the right to work are approached as a fundamental right and the difficulties of insertion of people with disabilities in the labor market, in addition to discussing the Brazilian and international legal treatment that addresses this theme. In this way, the insertion of the disabled person with a theoretical contribution from the work of Boaventura de Sousa Santos is analyzed, arguing that, through the Sociology of Absences, a reason different from the metonym is sought that causes absences to be transformed into presences in society. After all, in Santos' view, one should appreciate the pluralism of concepts, models and opinions, in addition to cultural diversity. Thus, the sociology of absences and emergencies allows for an appreciation of reality, which is a new way of reasoning and interceding for emerging realities. Through field research, questionnaires were applied to three private companies in the commercial sector of Espírito Santo, both to employees and to employers, so that they could report on the insertion of people with disabilities in the labor market, so that the degree of satisfaction and the difficulties encountered were objects of study.
