O papel da logística como instrumento de inclusão social de pessoas com deficiência física no mercado de trabalho

Abstract

This study addressed the inclusion of people with disabilities (PwD) in the labor market, using bibliographic review methods and a visual approach. The bibliographic review aimed to identify theories, concepts and studies related to the theme, while the visual approach consisted of analyzing the stock and work environment to identify problems and failures of everyday life. The results of the visual analysis were compared with the answers obtained in interviews with those responsible for the stock and sector under study. Qualitative analysis was conducted through SWOT analysis, which identified the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats related to the implementation of inclusive logistics. Highlighted strengths included adapting infrastructure and training professionals, while weaknesses pointed to lack of awareness and resistance to change. Opportunities were identified in government inclusion policies and the demand for inclusive products and services, while threats included discrimination and lack of investment. Based on the results, it was concluded that inclusive logistics plays a crucial role in the inclusion of PwD in the labor market. However, a lack of knowledge about inclusion legislation and barriers faced in the work environment was also observed. Therefore, it is necessary to promote awareness and expand knowledge about the importance of inclusion and equal opportunities. In summary, this project used literature review methods and a visual approach to analyze the inclusion of PwD in the labor market and inventory control in logistics. The results highlighted the importance of awareness and knowledge to achieve inclusion and equal opportunities.
