Serbia: Employment of People with Disabilities
03 December 2009
Until recently, people with disabilities in Serbia faced many barriers to decent work opportunities. When the Balkan country passed a disability law in 2009, the International Labour Organization created a pilot project to sensitize 100 companies about the employment of people with disabilities. The ILO was able to respond quickly, thanks to its “Regular Budget Supplementary Account” (RBSA) - a fund based on voluntary contributions from Member States. It was created in 2008, and has been a critical resource in response to the economic crisis and the need to enhance the ILO’s capacity to promote decent work.
