Employment Tips

Finding Employment When You Are Disabled
By:Joann Grant

With growing competency and educational standards, it has become hard to find a job that satisfies both your pocket and desires. And if you are struck with any form of disability at any level, your difficulties increase manifold.

Disabilities have been classified into many categories. Broadly, there are minor disabilities and major ones. Depending on the magnitude of your disability, you get the job. With certain disabilities you can find a job in the open job market as well. For instance, there are minor disability like a limp in a limb or a highly hunched back that might not come as a hurdle between you and your desired job. But other disabilities like an imputed limb or vision impairment can create colossal hurdles.

However, many of the Sate governments have provided breathers in the form of special job arenas for disabled. For the disabled people special places are made, besides the contemporary job market where they can find good job opportunities. Various places where a person suffering from disability can find a job are:

Sheltered Workshops: If a person is suffering from moderate to severe form of disability, sheltered workshops are the best places to find the job. A sheltered workshop is a place where disabled can learn to do the basic things like packaging of goods, assembling items, to name a few. All this is done through a sub-contracted work.

Production Workshop: Production workshop is a workplace ideal for the people who have moderate disabilities. Here people learn the art of printing and manufacturing. Such people are predominantly known to work in production line.

Open Market: People who are afflicted with slight to moderate disabilities can try and find a good job in an open market. In doing so, they can take help of various job placements organizations. These placement organizations will help them in locating a suitable job of their interests and needs.

For acquiring a good job, an important prerequisite is good education qualification. But besides contemporary form of education, people with disabilities can also look for an option in the vocational field. Through this, they can learn certain skills of basic livelihood, before stepping for a job in the corporate world.
