"The paper aims to examine the international principle of accessibility for persons with disabilities, emphasizing its significance in the current economic and social context. Drawing from the International and European legal provisions, the discussion focuses on the Italian case, both as a virtuous benchmark and as an effective representation of a standing framework. Set in the field of Labour Law, the issue is addressed by exacerbating the need to ensure accessibility not only in the workplaces stricto sensu, but also in the work organization as a whole, arguing that this challenge has become even more pressing in the AI era."
