3 障害者の就労と公的責任 : 共同作業所と運営助成金を中心に(IV 投稿論文)

抄録

With the advent of "the right to work" and "the right to development" emerged the serious role of the workshops for disabled persons. However, the economic management base was weak due to the lack of legal recognition. In this paper, the workshop in the city of Yokohama was cited as an example. The actual condition of management there showed that the management base was unstable, although the intended subsidy was substantial. Furthermore, the distribution method of the remuneration (dividend) and the methods for pursuing a connection with society obtained through work, etc., clarified the actual condition of work. However, the low level of the remuneration (dividend), the gap of legal institutions, wage differential with non-disabled people, etc., exposes the prominent subject of the support for institutional maintenance at a public level and the necessity for "wage assistance." Further, the gap between the areas of management subsidy, which the local government delivers, was surveyed. The contents and the developed factors of the subsidy policy were also considered as examples, such as Shiga, Kyoto, etc., where an advanced subsidy policy is implemented for the workshops. Finally, the source-of-revenue problem and public responsibility for the workshops was considered. If the wide gap between the areas of a local government subsidy policy and the rarity of the historical relations between a workshop and the central government is taken into consideration, there is a need for the central government to clarify the public responsibility for a workshop, and assume the responsibility. The author believes that the people involved and the related organizations should determine the range and the state of the public responsibility.
