Políticas de inclusão de pessoas com deficiência: análise de uma empresa ferroviária brasileira

Abstract

With the changes taking place in society and the need to work on the subject of diversity management, an important element to be analyzed is the inclusion of people with disabilities in the work environment. For this, a theoretical basis was developed based on the themes of diversity, relation of the person with disability in the work and the historical contexts of the process of inclusion before and after the elaboration of the Law 8,231 in 1991. The objective of this work was to analyze the policies of inclusion of people with disabilities in a Brazilian railway company, through the methodology of qualitative research through case study, using documentary research and documentary analysis. Through this model, empirical data can be obtained to highlight the difficulties faced by the organization to comply with its legal requirements regarding the inclusion of the disabled and the policies used by it for this purpose, such as previous training of the workforce, dissemination of specific vacancies for these professionals, sensitization of managers to the theme and adaptations in their physical facilities to better receive the new employee.
