Introduction:

the objective of this scientific approach was to validate through confirmatory factor analysis a measurement model to determine the perceived importance of the inclusion of persons with disabilities in the labor market, in employees who work or interact during the course of their duties with disabled employees.

Method:

An exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed to determine the psychometric properties of the instrument.

Results:

the proposed model ratified by means of confirmatory factor analysis the values of the main fit indicators (X 2 =40.15, p=.216; CMIN/DF= 1.18; CFI=.97; GFI= .91, IFI=.97; RMSEA=.04; CI 90 [.00-.09]).

Discussion or conclusion:

the results confirm the empirical sustainability of the proposed model to measure the perception on the occupational inclusion of people with disabilities" (POIPD) in organizations with at least one partner with disabilities, the data presented show evidence of a sustainable factor model.
