Trajetória de vida de pessoas com deficiência e sua inclusão no mundo do trabalho: da escolarização até o contexto laboral

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the life trajectory of people with disabilities, focusing on the educational process, in order to identify the factors that contributed to access to the labor market. Therefore, a thorough bibliographic research was conducted to understand what is being produced about the life trajectory of these individuals. Thus, we selected studies that reported on the education process of these individuals and their integration into the labor market. Eight texts were selected for study, published in the last decade. From the analyses, it is possible to understand the challenges experienced by this population from Basic Education to entry into the labor market. Therefore, it is necessary to address the contradiction of including in a society that excludes everything and everyone who deviates from the standard of normativity rooted in collectivity. Thus, it is essential that there be advances regarding legislation and affirmative actions aimed at social participation and the eradication of discrimination against these individuals. It is also necessary to address hegemonic relationships in education, which do not address the needs and subjectivities of their students. Despite the school being a place of learning, achievements, autonomy, and socialization, it is permeated by contradictions, such as bullying, lack of attitudinal accessibility and materials for PWDs, and the lack of preparation of educators who work in these spaces.
