dc.description.abstract | This article illuminates the work inclusion policies and strategies and the situation today when it comes
to including people with intellectual disabilities in workplaces in Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. The article
draws on official documents, previous research, and statistics. We discuss challenges regarding the current
situation in the light of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD)
and a social relational understanding of disability. The discrepancy between the current situation when it
comes to work inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities in these three Nordic countries, and the
perspective of human rights and work inclusion are of special interest as these have increasingly provided
the framework for policies in relation to the participation of people with disabilities in the labour market.
Approaches in Nordic labour market policies and practices must change to protect and promote the rights
of people with intellectual disabilities at work. | en_US |
