The present dissertation aims to study the necessity to apply the concept of reasonable accommodation, limited to an undue burden by public administration for disabled people as a mechanism to achieve social recognition. For such, the theory of intersubjective recognition is presented through the perspective of Axel Honneth. According to that, there are 3 spheres of recognition which, when complete, provide the individual s social self-realization. Thus, the social conflicts would reflect incomplete recognition relationships and the social inclusion struggle would then correspond in fact to a struggle for recognition. From this point of view it was possible to identify that people with disabilities are constantly struggling for their social inclusion. And the legal reservation of job posts in public competitions, predicted in the article 37, VIII of the Federal constitution, represents an important inclusive mechanism as well as promotes social recognition since it guarantees access to work. Nevertheless, the reservation itself would be innocuous if there wasn t a search for the implementation of this access to work through reasonable accommodation. This is an innovative concept, introduced by the Convention on the rights of people with disabilities of the United Nations Organization of which Brazil is signatory and which is inserted in the block of national constitutionality. Through reasonable accommodation and limited by the undue burden, measures are taken or adjustments are made, which are indispensable to the effective exercise of human rights. Such transformations contribute to the social inclusion of disabled people as well as broaden the normative horizons of a community.
