Quota of the obligation to employ persons with disabilities
All employers who employ a minimum of 20 workers are bound by a quota, i.e. a certain number of employment of persons with disabilities.
The number of persons with disabilities employed in a company amounts to three percent of the total number of employees, and employers can fulfill the quota in a substitute way:

- accepting students with developmental disabilities or students with disabilities for practice
- by admitting a rehabilitator to practice as part of professional rehabilitation
- by concluding a contract to perform student work with a student with a disability
- accepting persons with disabilities for professional training for work without establishing an employment relationship
- by concluding a contract on business cooperation with a disabled person who is self-employed
- by concluding contracts on business cooperation with protective and integrative workshops, as well as with trading companies, cooperatives and associations where more than half of the workers are people with disabilities
- by providing scholarships for the regular education of persons with disabilities.
If the employer does not fulfill the quota in either of these two ways, he is obliged to pay compensation in the amount of 30% of the minimum wage, every month, for each person with a disability that the employer was obliged to employ.
