Italian law 68/99 and Convenzione art.14

The Italian Law no. 68 of 1999 regulates the employment of people with disabilities in public and private enterprises; however, there are still many companies that for several reasons do not fulfill their employment obligations and find themselves at risk of being sanctioned without having created a positive social impact for the community.

Right Hub has developed an innovative service that allows companies to meet their legal obligations through inclusive alternative solutions to direct employment. In addition, by joining RIGHT in projects it is possible to combine environmental protection and labour inclusion of people with disabilities.

Compliance with the Italian Law 68/99: our services for the companies.

RIGHT HUB provides an ad-hoc comprehensive support to companies, as follows:

  • Consulting service to verify the company situation in accordance with the obligations under Italian Law 68/99 "Rules for the Right to Work of Persons with Disabilities" and the analysis of the most suitable tools to comply;

  • Ongoing annual consulting and assistance service for compliance with Law 68/99. This service allows continuous monitoring of the company's position and is fully integrated with the activities of Human Resources;

  • Consulting and assistance service  for the full adoption of one of the most effective labor tools, the Convenzione ex art.14 D.lgs. 276/2003 (Legge Biagi);

The Italian Law 68/99, from obligation to opportunity through the “Convenzione art.14”: our innovative and unique service in Italy.

The stipulation of Convenzione ex art.14 D.lgs. 276/2003, allows companies to fulfil their employment obligations under the Italian Law 68/99 without directly hiring people with disability but by purchasing goods and services from social cooperatives that comply with specific characteristics and requirements.
