The main challenge to promoting the inclusion and accessibility of people with disabilities in the job market is understanding which aspects limit this group. And this limitation is generally not in the disabilities they present. Cultural issues and worldview are essentially what act as barriers in society. And, as Paulo Serra, Innovation Director at Blue Ocean Events\u2014the company responsible for curating the Reatech Congress on Inclusion and Accessibility in the Job Market\u2014points out, \u201cthe corporate environment ends up replicating this universe.\u201d.<\/p>\n
According to the last census conducted by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics \u2013 IBGE, there are more than 45 million Brazilians who have some type of difficulty seeing, hearing, getting around, or have some type of mental disability. According to the Labor Inspection Information and Statistics Panel, in Brazil there are 768,723 reserved positions for PWDs \u2013 Persons with Disabilities. Of this total, 712,829 are working in private companies, 35,551 in mixed-economy companies, and 20,343 in
\npublic administration. However, just over 50%\u2014or about 372,000 of the total positions\u2014are filled.<\/p>\n
The Congress, which will be held from September 1 to 3, is part of the content programming of Reatech \u2013 International Fair of Technologies for Rehabilitation, Inclusion, and Accessibility, promoted by Fiera Milano Brasil, from September 1 to 4, at the S\u00e3o Paulo Expo. For Serra, accessibility and inclusion are extremely important topics that need to be further discussed in society. \u201cIt is essential that companies understand the challenges faced daily by people with disabilities, whose inclusion must be a political, educational, and corporate priority in Brazil.\u201d.<\/p>\n
For this very reason, Accessibility and Social Inclusion of people with disabilities in companies were the anchor themes chosen for the Reatech Congress. Maur\u00edcio Macedo, CEO of Fiera Milano Brasil, highlights that \u201cit will be a meeting with a corporate focus that will show how companies have worked to promote the inclusion and accessibility of these people. How leaders act in management and interact with them, ensuring that inclusion is not just an obligation, a necessity of
\nmeet a quota, but in an effective way. It is an event that talks about hiring, development, and training of people in practice.<\/p>\n
Talent retention<\/strong> \u201cThese are people whose jobs are connected to inclusion and accessibility. They understand that it is useless to invest if, within a few months, the person leaves the company because they do not feel included,\u201d explains Serra. \u201cCompanies need to take action to retain talent among people with disabilities. The debates will show that this concern exists in the private sector, but it needs to be expanded.\u201d.<\/p>\n Among other panels that will be presented during the congress are: \u201cThe Role of Organizations and Society in Breaking Paradigms Related to the Inclusion of People with Disabilities,\u201d \u201cLeader Training to Interact, Involve, Empower, and Engage People with Disabilities or in Rehabilitation,\u201d and \u201cHow Leaders Foster the Promotion of a Culture That Favors Integration, Empathy, and Diversity.\u201d.<\/p>\n Service:<\/strong> Fair: 1 PM to 8 PM on Thursday and Friday | 10 AM to 7 PM on Saturday and Sunday <\/p>\n SOURCE:<\/p>\n
