Beskrivning

To date, studies of disabled people and employment have mainly focused on barriers to gaining and maintaining employment. This report breaks new ground in asking: how do those disabled people who are already in work get and keep paid work?Written in an accessible style, the report:· details the strategies disabled people use to thrive and survive at work;· exposes the employment difficulties disabled people face in work environments designed by and for non-disabled people;· looks at the policy context in which disabled people maintain paid work;· draws on the experiences related by disabled people themselves; · frames questions in terms of the issues that are important to disabled workers.
