Özet:

The disabled workers employed in Turkey face significant problems in working life. Firstly, there are physical barriers, prejudices, working in unskilled low-paid jobs and deprivation of a professional career. One reason for these problems is that Human Resource Management (HRM) concepts do not sufficiently integrate disabled workers into their system. The aim of this paper is to present the structure of the adapted workplace analysis for disabled workers of the concept of “Disabled Friendly HRM” developed by Seyyar and Aydemir, inspired by Diversity Management as a HR strategy. The meaning of Disabled Friendly HRM is that it has the power to transform the heterogeneous workforce potential in companies for the common benefit of all employees and the company. In order to achieve this success, it is necessary to adapt the functionalities of workplace analysis, which are methodically valid in traditional HRM, to the needs of disabled workers. In this context in the first chapter of our article the analysis of the concept of handicapped friendly human resources management is made and after that their fonctions, aims and necessity are presented. In the second chapter Handicapped Friendly Human Job Analysis and in connection with that three fonctional factors are handled. These are Handicapped Friendly Special Job Description, Special Job Specifications and Job Design for Handicapped Labor. In order to apply the Job Design for Handicapped Labor we need several methods. Of them Handicapped Friendly Special Work Rotation, Special Business Simplification for Mentally Handicapped Persons, Special Job Enlargement and Enrichment for Handicapped Staff, Autonomous Working Groups in which Handicapped Persons are included, Handicapped Friendly Special Flexible Work and Handicapped Friendly Special Job Sharing are detailed introduced and evaluated. Ultimately, in companies that have developed a disability-friendly approach to HRM, disabled employees are able to fully adapt to the workplace as an equal member of the team and create a competitive advantage for the workplace with high motivation and performance.
