- The Program for the Orientation of Employed Workers (OTO) is free of charge, is subsidized by the ECYL and will last until July 31, 2022.
- This project involves the presence of the social entity throughout the community.
Fundación Personas, a reference entity in the care of intellectual disabilities, dependency and elderly people and people at risk of social exclusion in Castilla y León, has been awarded for the first time the OTO program(Orientation to Employed Workers), which means extending its presence to all provinces of the community.
The Guidance Program for Employed Workers (OTO) developed by Fundación Personas and subsidized by the Public Employment Service of Castilla y León (ECYL) will run until July. It is aimed at all employed people in the region and provides a guidance service that allows them to keep their jobs, get promoted in their company or obtain an adequate development of their professional career.
It will be deployed under four pillars: Training and access routes, Professional reorientation, Promotion through training and Professional qualification system.
In order to implement the program, Fundación Personas has hired 10 full-time professionals, distributed in the 9 provinces of Castilla y León, who will support the workers enrolled in the project to achieve their employment objectives over the next six months by improving their skills.
About Fundación Personas
Fundación Personas was created in 2008 by five associations in Castilla y León: ADECAS Guardo, ASPANIS Palencia, APADEFIM Segovia, ASPRONA Valladolid and ASPROSUB Zamora. Our mission is to improve the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities and their families by providing comprehensive services, in the environment and covering all stages of the life cycle. The founding associations belong to the Plena Inclusion family movement and bring 60 years of experience, share innovation and foster mutual collaboration.
With a regional presence, we are present in 30 towns in Castilla y León, urban centers and rural areas, where we attend to situations of disability or dependence and provide support for the promotion of personal autonomy. We also offer support and training to people at risk of social exclusion. Our activity is governed by criteria of quality and proximity in service; efficiency and transparency in management; equal opportunities, accessibility and respect for diversity as a driver of social transformation.
In the educational-care area, we manage 5,300 places daily in 75 centers, distributed in more than 30 locations in Valladolid, Palencia, Segovia and Zamora.
