Download or read book The Recruitment and Retention of People with Disabilities written by Sally Dench and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A British survey of employers examined the recruitment and retention of people with disabilities (PWDs). Telephone interviews were conducted with two samples of employers: a random sample of 1,250 and a sample of 250 registered users of the Employment Service's "Disability Symbol," which sets a good practice standard for the employment of PWDs. Findings indicated that more than 90 percent of employers with any disabled employees employed 5 or fewer. The two most common reasons for not having any disabled employees were that none had applied for a job or that a person with disabilities had been employed but had subsequently left. Forty-five percent of the symbol users sampled had a policy specifically addressing the employment of PWDs; only 17 percent of the random sample had a policy. There was a direct relationship between the size of establishment and the existence of written policy. Almost 71 percent of symbol users and 11 percent of the random sample were actively trying to attract applications from persons with disabilities; almost 40 percent of respondents reported difficulty in attracting such applications. People with difficulties in seeing or with mental handicaps/learning difficulties were hardest to employ. The main perceived problem related to the nature of the work. Almost all symbol users were prepared to make costless or minor changes to work environment; 84 percent were willing to pay for necessary adaptations or alterations. Eleven percent of symbol users did not seem aware of its existence. (Appendixes include the sampling design and characteristics, reanalysis of a previous survey, and questionnaire.) (YLB)

This book was released on 2007 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The findings indicated that a potential for improving the current placement system existed by transforming its service delivery from a functionalist model dependent on supply and demand of the market, to a comprehensive approach that acknowledged the supply demands of the market and recognized the role of program participants, the family, employers and society as active collaborators in the placement process. The results underscored the intricacy of a rapid changing culturally and economically rich environment where the effectiveness of the employment process is dependant on the synergy of this environment. All actors involved in the process must be aware of and able to adapt to it. This perspective acknowledged society's influence on the person; an ecological approach is supported therein.
