I have been working for more than three years in o. s. Asistence as a lecturer of group advisory meetings called Job Clubs. The objective of the presented thesis is to evaluate the importance and the key benefits of the group meetings for the clients. The thesis covers the theme of group advisory for certain job seekers with disability. The theoretical part describes the target group of individuals with physical or combined disabilities, the attitude of the society towards employment of people with disabilities, the importance of work for an individual, the issue of supported employment, group social work as well as Job Clubs. The research part of the thesis describes the qualitative research aimed at identifying and describing the benefits of Job Clubs for individuals with physical and combined disabilities in improving their employability. The research was carried out in o. s. Asistence from December 2007 to April 2008 using the structured interview methodology. Two groups of respondents were interviewed. The first one included 18 Job Club participants, the second one comprised of 6 Job Club lecturers. Information gathered in the research will be used by o. s. Asistence to improve the service. The research results underscore the importance and benefits of the group advisory for individuals with various disabilities. The thesis may also serve as a manual for future Job Club lecturers and to point out the importance of employing people with disability in the open labour market.
