Implementation Methodology of People with Disabilities for Work and Sports/Free-Time Teams

Abstract

In the last 10 years, the Czech Republic has been struggling with a strong social policy, influenced by the active social policy of post-communist countries. See the article PROGRESSION OF SUPPORT FOR COMPANIES EMPLOYING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, already published in IJMAS vol.8, issue 8. The implementation of people with disabilities on the labour market and in Czech companies is very important if we look at the fact that there is still a lack of workers to fully cover vacancies and a large mass of people who are partially able to work and their potential can only be used. The aim of this survey is to complement previous surveys and to be part of a large research on the issue of disability in the Czech Republic. An in-depth survey was used with the help of in-depth interviews with managers of diversity teams, corporate management and by the employees themselves in the corporations using a questionnaire survey. The sample consisted of 101 workers and 15 team leaders in 8 companies. The result is not a universal implementation methodology for a team leader to integrate a new/existing worker with a health disadvantage into the work team and measure his effectiveness in the team. The question remains how the implementation methodology can be applied outside the work environment, namely to teams of leisure activities of people with disabilities.
