Desenvolvimento profissional para pessoas com deficiência em empresas do transporte de passageiros rodoviário: uma proposta de inclusão e qualificação em parceria com o Sest Senat

Abstract

The present article aims to analyze the scenario of people with disabilities (PWDs) in the context of hiring in the road transport sector and propose a project to develop a professional qualification program in partnership with SEST SENAT. This program will focus on the inclusion, appreciation, and professional development of PWDs, aiming to equip them with the necessary skills and knowledge to compete effectively in the job market. The study was conducted using a qualitative exploratory research methodology, which allowed for an in-depth analysis of current practices and the challenges faced by PWDs in the road transport sector. The qualitative research enabled the collection of rich and detailed data about the experiences and needs of PWDs, as well as about existing hiring and inclusion practices. We encountered resistance from some individuals in responding to the survey directed at PWDs, as well as limited engagement from certain HR departments; however, it was possible to ascertain the need to further explore this issue to better value and empower the workforce of PWDs.
