Is the employment of the disabled legal?

Legal analysis: In order to ensure the employment of disabled people, enterprises are required to recruit a certain proportion of disabled people, otherwise they will have to pay a certain fee. In order to avoid this part of the cost, some enterprises choose to find disabled people to rely on and avoid this part of the cost. Legally speaking, it is illegal to link up. Enterprises are linked to the disabled, and only pay them social endowment insurance without paying wages, which is more risky for enterprises. Requiring enterprises to recruit disabled people is the state's care for disabled people and will not be cancelled.
