Abstract(s)
Apesar da existência de legislação e de apoios que salvaguardam a integração e a empregabilidade das pessoas com incapacidade intelectual, estas pessoas ainda se deparam diariamente com barreiras a este Direito que é de todos. Apesar dos esforços das entidades públicas e dos centros de formação profissional, dos centros de recursos local e das empresas no cumprimento da legislação e na adaptação dos espaços de trabalho e de formação - procurando assim, facilitar estes processos de integração - , estes esforços não têm sido os suficientes para que as pessoas com incapacidade intelectual tenham acesso ao mercado de trabalho como os restantes participantes ativos da sociedade.
Although there is legislation and support that safeguards the integration and employability of people with intellectual disabilities, these people still face daily barriers to this right that belongs to everyone. Despite the efforts of public entities and professional training centers, local resource centers and even companies, in complying with legislation and adapting workspaces and training to different specificities - to facilitate these processes integration -, these efforts h ave not been enough for people with intellectual disabilities to gain access to the job market like the remaining active participants in society. Thus, and taking into account the scarcity of data that allows us to understand, in Portugal, the employability of people with disabilities, we seek to identify barriers and facilitators to the professional integration of people with intellectual disabilities. This study aims to understand what are the barriers according to professional training professionals and companies (with and without experience in employing people with intellectual disabilities); what are the facilitators and good practices according to professional training professionals and companies (with and without experience in employing people with intellectual disabilities); What changes and adjustments for the future are still necessary to implement from the perspective of professional training professionals and companies?. Through semi-structured interviews, it was possible to understand the perspectives of two professional training centers, a local resource center, four companies with experience in the professional integration of people with intellectual disabilities and three companies with no experience, about the three research questions mentioned above.
