Book Synopsis Disabled People, Work and Welfare by : Grover, Chris
Download or read book Disabled People, Work and Welfare written by Grover, Chris and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2015-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to challenge the idea that paid work should be seen as an essential means to independence and self-determination for the disabled. Writing in the wake of attempts in many countries to increase the employment rates of disabled people, the contributors show how such efforts have led to an overall erosion of financial support for the disabled and increasing stigmatization of those who are not able to work. Drawing on sociology and philosophy, and mounting a powerful case for the rights of the disabled, the book will be essential for activists, scholars, and policy makers.

Book Synopsis Employment, Disability, and the Americans with Disabilities Act by : Peter David Blanck
Download or read book Employment, Disability, and the Americans with Disabilities Act written by Peter David Blanck and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Americans with Disabilities Act was heralded by its congressional sponsors as an emancipation proclamation for people with disabilities and as the most important civil rights legislation passed in a generation. This book offers an assessment of what has actually occurred since the ADA's enactment in 1990. In empirically based articles, contributors from the fields of law, health policy, government, and business reveal the unsoundness of charges from the right that the ADA will bankrupt industry, and assumptions on the left that the ADA will prove ineffective in helping people with disabilities enter and remain in the workforce.

This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), conducted the 2008 Survey of Employer Perspectives on the Employment of People with Disabilities. This survey emphasized current attitudes and practices of employers in 12 industry sectors, including some high growth industries as projected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). ODEP was also interested in understanding employer perspectives by company size. Previous surveys have documented employer response to the Americans with Disabilities Act and have identified barriers that employers experience or believe they will encounter in recruiting, hiring, retaining, and promoting workers with disabilities. For example, a 2003 telephone survey of 502 randomly selected private sector employers asked about employer views on people with disabilities in the workplace, accommodations, and economic issues (Dixon, 2003). However, there are several findings from this study that needed clarification and explanation. For example, when employers were asked what the greatest barrier to hiring people with disabilities was, 32 percent said the nature of work is such that people with disabilities cannot effectively perform it, while 22 percent answered they didn't know. Another study found that 22 percent of employers identified attitudes and stereotypes as a significant barrier to employment for people with disabilities (Bruyère, 2000). In order to increase employment opportunities for people with disabilities, it is important to know whether these beliefs are more prevalent in certain industries or vary by company size. A literature review also revealed the following weaknesses in the methods utilized in the research about employers (Hernandez, Keys, & Balcazar, 2000; Unger, 2002): Industry sectors. Little data exist to substantiate a comparison of practices between industries. High growth industries. Little research has been conducted on companies in rapidly growing industries. There is a high likelihood that an interest in recruiting employees with disabilities may exist in these industries. Company size. Little research has compared employer perspectives on the employment of people with disabilities based on company size. ODEP concluded that the research on employer perspectives on employing people with disabilities needed a strategic and scientifically based approach that rigorously collects and aggregates data from multiple types of employers. This survey was designed to fill a gap in knowledge about the practices and organizational challenges that employers face in recruiting, retaining, and advancing people with disabilities. There have been surveys conducted on employer attitudes, but there were no nationally representative studies on employer practices and challenges by company size and industry sector. This survey focused on industry segments and company size to ask detailed questions about practices, challenges and strategies. The strength of this survey is its emphasis on comprehensive sampling based on industry sectors, company size, and individuals at the executive level. This new knowledge on employer perspectives on employing people with disabilities will help ODEP formulate targeted strategies and policies for increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities. While ODEP has conducted focus groups with high level executives, this survey provided detailed and comprehensive data on employer attitudes and practices regarding hiring, recruitment, and retention for the industries involved.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this brief is to summarize the wide range of federal programs and government policies that influence the employment and program participation decisions of people with disabilities and current research initiatives related to these programs and policies. The brief is organized by the following types of programs, policies, and initiatives: ʼn federal programs that provide cash assistance, in-kind transfers (e.g., health insurance) and education, training, and rehabilitation support based on disability status and/or other characteristics (e.g., family structure); ʼn federal tax policies that provide credits either directly to individuals with disabilities or to employers as an incentive to hire a person with a disability; ʼn other employment-related programs and public policies that provide accommodation support and work incentives for people with disabilities; ʼn recent policy changes that affect people with disabilities; and ʼn some of the current research initiatives related to federal programs, tax policies, other employment programs and policies, and recent policy changes. We conclude with a summary of our program, policy, and research scan. This publication is based on The Economics of Policies and Programs Affecting the Employment of People with Disabilities, which provides a more comprehensive review of the policies and programs discussed here (as well as others) and analyzes the employment effects of these policies and programs within an economic framework.
