In adulthood some people may have a normal working life.
People who have neurological disorders, may ask for the status of disabled worker (RQTH : Reconnaissance of the Quality of a Disabled Worker). Epilepsy, if it is not stabilized, may be inconsistent with the professions requiring a driver's licence, working at heights, use of dangerous machinery or working around the chain. An opinion from a neurologist is required.
Other people, the fact of a deficit too large, will not be able to integrate into the world of regular work. Some exercise a paid professional activity in an Establishment Specialized Assistance by Work (ESAT).
For people who have a severe disability, a professional activity can not be considered : they can then be accommodated in households of life or Centres of Activity Day (CAJ), where they participate in physical activities, artistic and cultural.
In France, within each department, the services are provided for the social and vocational integration of adults with disabilities. Others support the adaptation of workplaces in accordance with the doctor's work. These adaptations are carried out by ergonomists. The Association of Management of the Fund for the Vocational Integration of People with Disabilities (AGEFIPH), the private sector, and the Fund for the Integration of Persons with Disabilities in the Public Service (FIPHFP), for the public sector, are specialized organizations that aim to help people with disabilities and their employers to succeed in their insertion in the professional life.
