The role of the Disablement Resettlement Officer

Abstract

Over the past 30 years the government employment policies for disabled people have been based on the principle that, given the right sort of support services, most disabled people can compete for jobs on equal terms with anyone else. The Manpower Services Commission (MSC) feels that this principle is still valid today. The provision of specialised services for disabled people is a very important part of the Manpower Services Commission’s work, and a substantial share of its resources is devoted to this field.
