The Employment Support of Disadvantaged Population in the Open Labor Market With an Emphasis on Disabled People in Slovakia

Currently, the labour market is in a good shape in many EU‘s counties. After the financial crisis, due to repeatedly start of economies of individual countries, there has started to raise also an employment rate. However, the employment of the marginalized groups still remains a problem for many countries, including Slovakia. Due to this fact, there should strengthen the respective measures, in order to improve the conditions of vulnerable groups of people in the open labour market. In particular, we see the targeted measures as incentives for employers in order to increase their "willingness" to employ disadvantaged jobseekers. This paper discuss about the increased attention to the disabled people and the possibilities of their participation in the open labour market. The aim of this article is to assess the impact of tax- oriented instruments that could improve, currently not very favourable, the position of disabled people in the open labour market in Slovakia. The proposed tax and other contributions instruments could also be applicable to other vulnerable groups of the population who need to be more competitive because of their disadvantage position.
