The International Labour Office (ILO) Disability Programme has commissioned
a working paper on "The Right to Decent Work of Persons with Disabilities"
as a contribution to the deliberations taking place in preparation for the
development of a United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities.
The paper is intended to be of specific relevance to those involved in
drafting provisions concerning employment and work in the proposed
Convention.
It examines the development over time of the "right to work" of disabled
persons, the way in which this matter has been dealt with in international
instruments and national legislation to date, and the experience in
implementing employment and work opportunities.
The paper will be useful to those involved in the preparation of the
proposed UN Convention, assisting them to build on past achievements and
practice. It will also be useful in
the drafting of national policy and legislation.
Copies of the working paper can be obtained directly from the Disability
Programme InFocus Programme on Skills, Knowledge and Employability at the
International Labour Office (ILO)
