Summary

In this regard we would focus on two topics: key issues of the social integration, complex rehabilitation, and occupational rehabilitation of persons with disabilities and changed working capacity and initiate an EU-level thinking regarding the requirement of reasonable accommodation: through the identification of basic principles in all areas of life, possible definition(s) as well as barriers of implementation in practice.

This subject matter is fully in line with the priorities of the Hungarian Presidency in the social field, as this topic will be explored both through council conclusions and during high level events. An explanatory opinion on this topic would provide significant synergies with the activities planned during the Hungarian Presidency, and would be compatible with the overarching presidency priority, i.e. demographic issues.
