Abstract

In this article are presented the results of research on the fit between the job and the skills of workers with intellectual disabilities, in order to identify factors that affect the maintenance of the workplace. It is done through a methodology for evaluating program outcomes Promentor (UAM-PRODIS) and associated Labor Inclusion Service. The evaluation was carried out on 52 workers, with the application of a questionnaire to the companies in which they work and their trainers or labor mediators. The most significant results are: 1) The figure of labor mediator is essential not only in employment but also in maintenance in the workplace; 2) The most valued competence dimension is “Responsibility, autonomy and motivation”; 3) In the second most valued competence dimension, there are discrepancies between labor mediators and collaborators. The first highlights the dimension “Interpersonal skills”, while companies put more emphasis on “Management and organization”. The conclusions reflect on the implication of these results on the itineraries of training and employment support custom.
