The Brazilian Law 8,213/91 is approaching its third decade. Along with this milestone, questions about its ability to leverage decent working conditions for people with disabilities remains current. Sustainable Development goal 08 seeks to directly contribute to the inclusive journey initiated by the quota law, through the promotion of decent work and the economic growth of social agents, among which this portion of society receives attention. However, it proves challenging to show the connection between what is described in the two mentioned diplomas, and the factual situation experienced by these people. This research seeks to analyze the practices adopted by companies in relation to the social inclusion of people with disabilities in the labor market, in order to point out how the quota law contributes to the Sustainable Development Objective oriented to decent work. The research method has a qualitative approach, whose exploratory objective is based on a survey using structured interviews and multiple case studies. For the analysis and interpretation of data, the content analysis method was adopted. As a result, the research identified that there is a partial intersection between the two diplomas, based on the visibility and access to work proposed by the quota law, however once the person with disabilities gets a paid job, the element of equity is shown to be a barrier to be overcome by the labor universe, making it very difficult for career progression according to what is recommended by the Sustainable Development Goal number 08.
