Employers on employment of persons with health impact assessment and disabilities: opinions and facts The materials of the article are devoted to the issues of actively involving persons with health impact assessment (HIA) and disability in the labour market. Attention is focused on the social responsibility of heads of state and private organizations to provide job for this category of citizens. Topical issues of the process of integrating citizens with HIA and disabilities into labour activity are noted. The degree of development of this problem in psychological, pedagogical and sociological literature is analysed. It is emphasized that the views of employers on the employment of persons with HIA and disabilities have not become the subject of special scientific study. A detailed experimental analysis of the questionnaire data of one hundred and thirteen leading employees of private and state structures from the sphere of business, production, education, medicine, etc. is proposed. Their ideas about problem areas and the specifics of hiring citizens with HIA and disabilities are examined. Their knowledge of the labour potential of this category of workers is compared with the most common patterns of behaviour of managers in the employment of persons with HIA and disabilities. The positions of employers during the interview, the selection of a vacant position and the area of work for this category of employees are analysed. There is a significant need for employers in state support when hiring an employee with health impact assessment. It describes the significant difficulties that, according to employers, managers experience in hiring people with HIA and disabilities. The assumptions of employers about the probable problems of finding a job that applicants with health restrictions may have are analysed.
The article presents some data on the growing role of a family as a customer of educational services as well as it shows the existence of a priority legal right for parents to choose an educational programme and organisation for their children. A comprehensive study that determines the individual educational route of a child with disabilities was carried out on the basis of the developed technologies of a special pedagogical questionnaire. The authors obtained new data on the opinions of parents on the issue of teaching the hearing impaired, the visually impaired and children with musculoskeletal disorders. In accordance with the selected criteria, the educational requests of parents of children with disabilities at the stage of completion of preschool and school education have been analysed. A detailed analysis of experimental data has made it possible to identify problem areas in planning and implementing of an individual educational route, to clarify features and patterns in the construction of an individual educational trajectory by a family of a child with disabilities. The dynamics of educational requests and expectations of parents raising preschoolers and senior school students with sensory and motor impairments has been traced. Conclusions have been made about the need to expand cooperation between the educational organisation, the psychological, medical and pedagogical commission and the family in the design and implementation of an individual educational route for a child with disabilities.
