Abstract

This article aims to investigate the similarities between social policies on disability and integration policies. The similarities are particularly noticeable at an organisational level, especially after the changes brought about by the Law of 2005 for equal rights and opportunities, the participation and citizenship of disabled individuals. However, differences can be observed ; the status of beneficiaries and their organisations, a more advanced single-window system and the organisation role of a central authority. Recently, reflection on the employability of individuals receiving disabled adults benefits, which aims to encourage the employment of the latter, putting an end to the benefits they receive, seem to be an early indication of new similarities between these policies.
