”I saw her carry out the work, she was fast and I wanted to reward her by giving her more work. She felt proud and took the extra work and then, after two days, she completely dropped out. I had to learn about her limits, as with any new employee. I will now stick to what we agreed upon, and stimulate her, that is best for all of us.”

” We sometimes forget that our employee has some limitations – difficulties have always been overcome with ease. Supervision is essential, mainly to give simple, clear and short instructions, accompanying him in his daily work routine, reassuring him in his tasks through clear instructions.”

” He is very strong in details, I saw possibilities to create a new specialist function in my company, to find out how to optimize our working lines and I offered him the possibility to follow an education in this. He took this opportunity with both hands.”

”In the beginning she worked on the production line. She is very accurate and we offered her the possibility to check the products on the line. She was nervous about this career step and it took some time for her to get used to it. She overcame her nervousness and we are very happy with her accuracy in this new role.”

” In fact, it only requires, as already indicated, understanding and flexibility of our side and a clear motivation and a positive attitude from the applicant with a disability.”

” During the first year, our disabled employee learned and developed ways to overcome his limitations, adapting his interaction with the work tasks and gaining skills. The only necessary adaptation was to give him time to learn the craft in his own way, and from the moment he achieved that goal, he has been perfecting his skills to mastery. Our relationship reflects a bond we try to establish with all our workers: of mutual help, collaboration, and familiarity, but also of demand, professionalism, and quality.”

” We need workers that match. In the beginning, we often had to disappoint candidates, because of their mismatch with what was needed in the job and our company. It took some time for the vocational service provider to understand the seriousness of our requirements, now we cooperate in a satisfying way.”
