What is the purpose of the special provisions for candidates with disabilities during recruitment?

The purpose of special provisions for candidates with disabilities during recruitment is to provide equal opportunities for all candidates. This approach ensures that individuals with disabilities have access to the same opportunities as those without disabilities, promoting inclusivity and fairness in the recruitment process. Offering equal opportunities means that adjustments and accommodations are made to eliminate barriers that might prevent these candidates from competing on an even playing field.

While options like additional examination time, fair treatment in the selection process, and exemptions in application fees are important aspects of support for candidates with disabilities, they are specific measures arising from the broader goal of providing equal opportunities. The overarching intent is to create an inclusive environment that recognizes the potential of all individuals, regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities. Thus, the emphasis on equal opportunities captures the fundamental purpose driving all special provisions in the recruitment process.
