Conceptualisations of Disability in ICF and CPRD: Their contribution to the realization of the Right to Work

Hirschberg, Marianne

The two constructs of disability, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), have similar but different perspectives on disability. The ICF is a health related classification and used especially in the rehabilitation sector whereas the CRPD is an international juridical contract. The signatory states are obliged to implement it regarding justice for disabled people. Consequently, they follow different goals and they are used in different ways. Their contribution to the realization of the right to work will be explored in this essay.
