Slide 1

Integration of the handicapped must not mean ignoring their handicap and acting as if it did not exist. Integration of the handicapped means allocating them the position in which they can get optimum promotion.


Slide 2

The Center for the Handicapped of the City of Vienna, the only institution which is solely managed by the city administration is considered to be a model in this field.


Slide 3

It is run as a day center targeted at enabling handicapped persons to participate in social and occupational life. New possibilities for the care and occupation of disabled people are created by using modern technologies.


Slide 4

Administration:

  • In order to guarantee care a great deal of adminstrative effort has to be expanded in the background.
  • Besides this work (correspondence, bookkeeping, contacts to outside partners and companies, processing of incoming orders) the social workers at this center are primary contacts for information and current matters of organisation.

Slide 12

The computer is an IBM PC Model...


Slide 13

For data transport an ISDN telephone line with a datatransfer rate of .... is used.


Slide 14

This application was implemented by Dr. K. Wimmer GesmbH, an EDP Service Company in Vienna, which is specialized in implementing EDP methods and procedures for Disabled People and which is supported by IBM AUSTRIA.


Slide 15

The clients learn to operate the devices and to process the copies.

As fixed delivery times are normally requested precise and accurate execution of work is necessary.


Slide 16

Further activities are binding, foiling, keypunching and sorting of copies.

Moreover production of printed T-shirts, newspapers, manuals, theses, and mass mailing is offered.


Slide 17

Incoming orders can be sent to the copyshop by E-Mail. If mass mailing is requested, address files can also be transmitted to the center.

If necessary or requested by the customer, the layout of the original will then also be arranged at the center.


Slide 18

For example the center got an order from ARKENSTONE USA to produce manuals in Vienna in French for their French clientele. The copies were then mailed to French ARKENSTONE Dealers direct. A very important feature of this method is the dramatic increase in transport speed.


Slide 19

The file was transferred by E-Mail and stored in the PC. As this PC is connected to the copier, the text of the manual goes straight into the copier.


Slide 20

Thus a world wide market of potential customers for orders can be opened for orders to safeguard job opportunities for the handicapped.
