The Independent Commission for Human Rights Individual Private Projects (Free Business): • Individual projects or free businesses contribute much to the participation of PWDs in the labor market in terms of the source and reliability of the project’s funding, source or idea of the project, nature and operation of the project, role of the funding and specialist organizations as well as monitoring and sustainability of the project. • PWDs who organize these projects are males. These projects are mostly industrial, agricultural or crafts-related. A few of them are commercial (groceries, electrical shops, husbandry, etc.). • The idea to start a project was primarily started either by the friends or the family or inherited from the father. The governmental institutions (MoL, MoSA) and organizations concerned with PWDs, lending organizations and centers of rehabilitation and vocational training also contribute to such projects. • The funding sources of the projects of PWDs were primarily: the person himself or herself, donors, family, UNRWA, payment in advance, friends, loans by Christian Youth Association or bank loans. • Besides the Ministry of Agriculture and some other lending organizations, implementation of projects for PWD are not monitored by a responsible authority. • Answers of the respondents were close to the results of the employing institutions in regard to the nature of the occupations and functions they occupy in the three job sectors. They were also very close with regard to questions about the reason why they quit working. The primary reason for that was limited duration of the work contract, distance from the work place, unsuitability of qualifications and feeling of inactivity or failure to perform the tasks of the job. • Main reasons for having no PWDs in the three job sectors were: lack of accommodation in the workplace, valid mechanisms and procedures of recruitment, lack of confidence in the ability of PWDs; especially in the private sector. • The government and non-government sectors paid more attention than the private sector to providing accommodations in the workplace with a view to ensure physical access for PWDs. 10
