ABSTRACT

Therefore, there is a need to compare the demands of the job and the PD’s capabilities. The goal is that the demands of work do not exceed the functional capacities of the worker with a disability and that the workplace is accessible and safe. PD’s jobs should allow or facilitate the development of their individual skills and abilities, while also preventing the progression of their existing deficiencies and/or the emergence of new ones (Tortosa et al., 1997). Thus, this prevents the worker with disabilities from having to make a great effort to adapt to the job or the job’s falling far short of their professional qualifications (Martins, Barkokébas Junior and Guimarães, 2012).
