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.

Download or read book Selected Labor Market Factors and Employment Rates of Individuals with Disabilities from 1981 to 2002 written by Ilana S. Lehmann and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over two decades, the employment rate of individuals with disabilities has declined nationally. This period of decline, which occurred between 1980 and 2002, includes within its boundaries two landmark federal statutes, the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act. This research addressed five research questions that sought to find the interactions of those selected labor market factors that were likely to have had an impact on the employment rate of individuals with disabilities at a state level. The relationship between state and federal minimum wages and the employment rates of individuals with and without disabilities was analyzed using a time series procedure. The relationship between wages and the application rates to the benefits programs of the Social Security Administration were analyzed in a second time series model. The third analysis added the state and federal ADA and FMLA legislation to the time series model to determine how these factors affected the employment rates of individuals with disabilities over and above the effects of minimum wages. The results indicated that while minimum wages affect both individuals with and without disabilities, the relationship was stronger for the non-disabled. No significant relationship was found between minimum wages and benefit application rates. The state and federal ADA and FMLA were significantly related to the decline in employment rates in the time period. The effects of the FMLA appear to have been more significant than the effects of the ADA. Using a sample of 20 states, selected based on high and low employment rate variability, the groups were compared based on industry composition, population profiles, tax revenues, and spending on rehabilitation programs. The most significant predictors of employment rate stability were the percentage of the states' population with a disability, percentage of jobs in the government sector, per capita taxes, per capita spending, and the number of disability related state statutes. The outcomes of these investigations provide insight into not only how these labor market factors have affected the employment rates of individuals with disabilities, but also how that relationship has changed over time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of disability in America will depend on how well the U.S. prepares for and manages the demographic, fiscal, and technological developments that will unfold during the next two to three decades. Building upon two prior studies from the Institute of Medicine (the 1991 Institute of Medicine's report Disability in America and the 1997 report Enabling America), The Future of Disability in America examines both progress and concerns about continuing barriers that limit the independence, productivity, and participation in community life of people with disabilities. This book offers a comprehensive look at a wide range of issues, including the prevalence of disability across the lifespan; disability trends the role of assistive technology; barriers posed by health care and other facilities with inaccessible buildings, equipment, and information formats; the needs of young people moving from pediatric to adult health care and of adults experiencing premature aging and secondary health problems; selected issues in health care financing (e.g., risk adjusting payments to health plans, coverage of assistive technology); and the organizing and financing of disability-related research. The Future of Disability in America is an assessment of both principles and scientific evidence for disability policies and services. This book's recommendations propose steps to eliminate barriers and strengthen the evidence base for future public and private actions to reduce the impact of disability on individuals, families, and society.

Download or read book Disabled people, work and welfare written by Grover, Chris and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to challenge the concept of paid work for disabled people as a means to ‘independence’ and ‘self determination’. Recent attempts in many countries to increase the employment rates of disabled people have actually led to an erosion of financial support for many workless disabled people and their increasing stigmatisation as ‘scroungers’. Led by the disability movement’s concern with the employment choices faced by disabled people, this controversial book uses sociological and philosophical approaches, as well as international examples, to critically engage with possible alternatives to paid work. Essential reading for students, practitioners, activists and anyone interested in relationships between work, welfare and disability.

Download or read book Employment and Disability written by Susanne M. Bruyère and published by Labor and Employment Research Association. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly three decades after the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), people with disabilities continue to be significantly underrepresented in the American Labor force. This loss of talent to U.S. organizations and restriction of opportunities for millions of workers have broader implications for civil society. People denied access to the workforce are limited in their ability to contribute to the economy and to their communities, heightening their reliance on public support systems and reducing the number of people participating in community life. This LERA volume focuses on the employment of individuals with disabilities. Its purpose is to review the current employment situation for Americans with disabilities, place it in the context of the U.S. regulatory system, describe current issues, identify ways that employers are approaching possible remediation of these issues, and identify emerging concerns and opportunities. A multi-disciplinary team of researchers and practitioners provide a broad-based overview of related issues, approaches, and opportunities. This volume will be useful to a wide array of professionals, including labor and employment relations attorneys and specialists; human resource, diversity and inclusion, and equal employment opportunity professionals; as well as organizational leaders, managers, and supervisors who are seeking to improve employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities both here and abroad.
