Zulassung der Anrechnung von Arbeitsplätzen mit unter 18 Wochenstunden Bewilligung

If your company employs severely disabled persons or persons with equivalent disabilities who work less than 18 hours per week, you can count them towards a compulsory job under certain conditions.

As an employer with at least 20 workplaces, you must fill 5 percent of your workplaces with severely disabled or equivalent employees (mandatory workplaces).

Normally, a severely disabled person or equivalent disabled person must work part-time for you for at least 18 hours per week for the job to be counted as a compulsory job.

If a severely disabled or similarly disabled person works less than 18 hours a week, you must prove that this is necessary due to the nature or severity of the disability. Only then can this workplace exceptionally be counted as a compulsory workplace.

• Proof of status as a severely disabled person or equal status, e.g. by means of a copy of the severely disabled person's ID card.
• Proof of the necessity of part-time employment, for example by means of medical certificates

In order to count the employment as a compulsory job, you must meet the following requirements:

• Your company employs at least 20 employees.
• The person you want to count towards a mandatory job,
  • works less than 18 hours per week,
  • is severely disabled or equivalent to a severely disabled person, and
  • can only work part-time due to the nature or severity of the disability.
