ABSTRACT

Employment of disabled people is an important way to ensure their basic livelihood, social participation, and realize their life value. However, due to the varying degrees of physical or psychological deficiencies that disabled individuals have compared to healthy individuals, their employment rate and income level are often lower than those of healthy individuals. In addition, there is a cognitive bias towards people with disabilities in society, which leads to social exclusion in various aspects such as politics, economy, and culture, exacerbating the employment difficulties of people with disabilities and hindering their pace of social integration. This article takes Heilongjiang Province as an example, focusing on the disabled group with labor ability and studying their employment issues. At present, there are still a large number of disabled people in Heilongjiang Province with poor quality of life, making it difficult to integrate into mainstream society, which poses serious obstacles to achieving a comprehensive well-off society including disabled people. This article first explains the overview of disabled people and their employment in Heilongjiang Province; Secondly, relevant employment data for disabled people were obtained through a questionnaire survey; Finally, by combining the data from the overview of disabled people in Heilongjiang Province with the data obtained from the questionnaire survey, it was found that there are problems with the employment of disabled people in Heilongjiang Province, mainly including low employment rate, low level and stability after employment, low income level, and significant employment limitations.
