VIEIRA, Camila Mugnai; VIEIRA, Priscila Mugnai  e  FRANCISCHETTI, Ieda. Professionalization of disabled people: reflections and possible contributions from psychology. Rev. Psicol., Organ. Trab. [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.4, pp. 352-361. ISSN 1984-6657.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17652/rpot/2015.4.612.

The phenomenon of professionalization of disabled people is complex and goes beyond the contradictions of the capitalist system, social structure and interactions, behavior and the human psyche. Among the professionalization challenges for people with disabilities, we list the following: insecure and informal positions, minimal or no compensation, low education and qualifications. Legislation brings advances but its compliance is fragile and reductionist. This paper presents potential contributions from psychology, through education, in different contexts: together with disabled persons and their families, the business community, institutions, and civil society. We discuss the professionalization of people with disabilities; the limitations are exposed considering the different social subjects and the contradictions that exist in public policies. But mainly, direction is offered and important instruments in psychology are proposed for greater inclusion.
