Abstract
Las personas con discapacidad han sido un colectivo históricamente discriminado que ha sufrido permanentes situaciones de exclusión en el ámbito del empleo y de la ocupación. La situación antes descrita es especialmente grave si se considera la cantidad de personas discapacitados en edad de trabajar que se encuentran desempleadas y las consecuencias que conlleva dicha situación, tanto en el ámbito individual como colectivo. El presente trabajo logra reunir y desarrollar orgánicamente en un mismo documento los mecanismos de respuesta que se han desarrollado en Europa para combatir la baja empleabilidad del colectivo discapacitado: la no discriminación como derecho individual y las acciones positivas como medio de integración social. Se pretende, así, otorgar una visión conceptual general de estos dos mecanismos, desde una perspectiva normativa, doctrinal y jurisprudencial.
Disabled individuals have been a group historically discriminated, who have suffered permanent exclusionary situations within the scope of employment and occupation. The aforementioned situation is particularly serious if we take into account the amount of disabled people who are of working age and who are unemployed, along with the consequences derived from the foregoing, both individually and collectively. Within this single document, this work systematically collects and elaborates about the response mechanisms developed in Europe to attack the low employability of disabled people as a group; non-discrimination as an individual right; and affirmative actions as means for social integration. Thus, this work seeks to achieve a general conceptual outlook of these two mechanisms, from the perspective of applicable law, legal theory and case law.
