Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between holding a disability certificate and job discrimination. The motivation for conducting this research is to identify a research gap relating to the insufficient recognition of the issue of dysfunction in human resource management, namely, the discrimination of individuals with disabilities by employers. This paper presents the results of a survey conducted on a sample of 148 people. The results of the nonparametric significance tests are discussed. Contrary to the subjective feelings of the surveyed population, the study found that, in selected areas, both the degree and character of a disability significantly correlate with job discrimination by employers.
