      Historique

      This program was established in September 1978 to maximize opportunities for physically disabled people in the province of Ontario. It was located in the Program Analysis and Implementation Division (later known as Labour Policy and Programs).

      In 1990 the program was renamed the Centre for Disability and Work, and in 1991 it was moved to the Employment Practices Branch, continuing essentially the same function until it was closed in 1996.

      Fonctions et activités

      The Handicapped Employment Program worked to improve private sector employment opportunities for the physically disabled through affirmative action with employers and encouragement of self employment.

      The Program provided a link between employers, unions, disabled persons, special interest groups, voluntary programs, social agencies, related government programs, educators and health professionals. The program also provided a clearing house of information relating to the employment of persons with disabilities, and the overcoming of barriers to equal opportunity. It also advised disabled persons seeking employment and advised government on policy and legislation affecting the employment of disabled persons.
