2. Demand-Side Employment
A recent National Organization on Disability report (2007)
indicated that only 35% of working-age people with chronic
illness and disability are employed comparing to 78% of those
without disabilities.
Two-thirds of the unemployed persons with chronic illness and
disability indicated that they would like to work but could not find
jobs.
Employment rates for people with disabilities has been hovering
around 35% in the past two decades, even during the robust
economy of the 1990s.
Rehabilitation rates for people with disabilities after receiving
state vocational rehabilitation services are about 60% varying by
disability types.

3. Demand-Side Employment
Research
There seems to be a limit to what the supply-side
employment and job placement model can achieve.
The supply-side approach ignores variables related to
employer demand (and the interaction of employer
demand/supply and the environment) as predictors of
employment outcomes for people with chronic illness
and disability.
3
9. Demand-Side Employment
The focus of demand-side employment models is on
the employer and work environment (i.e., occupational
shifts and industrial change).
Demand-driven employment strategies must
emphasize the preparation of persons with disabilities
for jobs that employers need to fill.
Rehabilitation counseling professionals must have a
thorough understanding of the real concerns of
employers about hiring persons with disabilities and be
able to address their concerns and needs.
9
10. Demand-Side Employment
The focus of demand-side employment models is on
job placement of people with all types of disabilities
and all levels of severity and not just people with
significant disabilities.
The focus of demand-side employment is participation
of people with disabilities in occupations representing
all levels of complexity from unskilled occupations to
professional/technical and managerial occupations.
10
11. Demand-Side Employment
Research Questions
Does [Wisconsin] have enough workers today?
Will there be enough workers in the future?
Do these workers have the skills our businesses are
demanding?
What kind of jobs are in demand?
11
12. Demand-Side Employment
Research Questions
In the event of a skills gap, what are the reasons for the
gap and what are the implications?
What could be done about the skills gap?
What are employers’ perceptions about people with
disabilities as skilled and productive workers who can be
a solution to this skills gap?
How can we, as rehabilitation counselors, help increase
the “comfort” level of employers toward hiring and
retaining people with disabilities in demand occupations?
(Gilbride & Stensrud, 1992).
12
14. Demand-Side Employment
Employment demand is changing and projected to shift due to
fundamental structural economic changes.
What and where lie the greatest and growing areas of
employment opportunities.
What do these changes imply in terms of skill requirements.
Labor demand must be a key driver of skill development.
The changing demographic makeup in the American work
force will translate into dramatic changes in hiring and work
environment structuring. Employers will increasingly have to
recruit and accommodate people from the non-traditional
labor pool including minorities and people with disabilities just
to meet their labor needs.
14
15. Demand-Side Employment
Analysis
Drivers of Labor Market Change:
Globalization of markets
Technological change
Changing customer-driven demands
Changing patterns of trade
Changing demographic trends
Public policy
Changing skill requirements and requisite job tasks
within occupations
15
16. Demand-Side Employment
Analysis
Demographic makeup is changing (e.g., the ageing
workforce).
Structural unemployment may be edging higher in
certain countries.
Occupational employment changes vary geographically
(e.g., the U.S. has been losing manufacturing jobs and
gaining in services and information technology jobs).
Employment growth in small businesses—lower wages,
higher layoff rates, requiring multiple skills and flexibility.
Organizational structure is changing—flatter and more
team-based.
16
17. Demand-Side Employment
Analysis
Components of employment—companies are changing and
the use of the following three main interacting
components of employment may increasingly become
more common:
1. A core workforce of full-time full-year workers within
organizations;
2. A group of skilled, self-employed and professional workers
who work mainly on a contract or project basis either
chiefly for one organization or a number of different ones;
and
3. A peripheral or contingent group of workers who are
involved in part-time, temporary or seasonal work, and who
often are low-skilled.
17
18. Demand-Side Employment
Analysis
Describing and Quantifying Future Occupational
Demand—need to focus research efforts to
gather information even more directly upon the
demand side in terms of employer needs, their
hiring decisions, and their workplace training
decisions.
18
19. Demand-Side Job Placement
Models for People with Disabilities
Focus on the employer and work environment (i.e.,
occupational shifts and industrial change).
Emphasize the preparation of persons with chronic
illness and disability for jobs that employers need to fill
(i.e., demand occupations).
Provide consulting and training to employers on how to
better recruit, accommodate, support, and integrate
workers with disabilities.
19
20. Demand-Side Job Placement
Model (Gilbride & Stensrud, 1992)
1. Increase Demand
Identify jobs employers have difficulty filling
Evaluate essential functions, perform cost/benefit analyses on
levels of accommodations and task restructuring
Assist employers in developing a recruitment plan and/or training
program
Inform public rehabilitation agencies on current and future labor
requirements of local business
Collaborate with employers, public rehabilitation, and training
institutions to provide skills training for persons with disabilities
20
21. Demand-Side Job Placement

2. Consultation
Consultation approach, not selling clients
RCs offer employers expertise in helping employers to solve
their human resources needs.
Rehabilitating workplace, not rehabilitating clients
Function as organization development and human resource
development consultant
21
22. Demand-Side Job Placement
Model (cont.)
3. Employer Needs Focus
Speak the language of business
Understand the real concerns of employers and be able to speak
to their needs
Understand and know how to help employers get work done
Help employers view people with disabilities as resources to get
work done
Must match people with disabilities carefully for the job
Match employers with “qualified” and competent workers with
disabilities
22
23. Demand-Side Job Placement
Model (cont.)
4. Job Focused
Increase the number and range of jobs that people with various
functional limitations can perform within a specific organization
Work with employers to identify jobs they need to fill, develop
accommodation strategies, and then find applicants.
Network with rehabilitation agencies (e.g., public rehabilitation
agencies, vocational-technical schools, private job placement
firms, etc.) to have a pool of people with specific capacities and
characteristics ready to fill the available positions
23
24. Demand-Side Job Placement

5. Private Funding
Consultation services provided by RCs should be paid
by employers
Public rehabilitation agencies will be part of the
solution (e.g., paying for the training costs) and not all
of the solution

6. Consultation is Ongoing
Work with employers and employees to provide on-going
OD/HRD consultations so that employees with
disabilities can progress from entry-level positions to
higher level positions.

7. Middle Managers and Line Supervisors Focus
View middle managers and line supervisors as the
most important customers to help them solve day-to-
day problems and to get work done efficiently.
Make sure that middle managers, line supervisors,
and co-workers consulted, involved, educated, and
supported to reduce stress and increase “comfort”
level of working with people with disabilities
27
28. Demand-Side Employment –
Critical Issues
Changing structure of the workforce and the impact of
downsizing.
Increasing use of on-call workers, temporary help
agencies, and independent contractors.
Rapid advances in technology requiring the need for
highly educated, highly skilled workers.
Employer perceptions, beliefs, and attitudes regarding
the employment of individuals with disabilities.
Employer knowledge and use of incentives for hiring
individuals with disabilities.
28
29. Demand-Side Employment –
Critical Issues
The effect of labor market demand policies and
economic factors on employment outcomes for
individuals with disabilities
Employer-based hiring practices that influence
employment outcomes and employer understanding of
the implications of employment practices for individuals
with disabilities
Predictors of return to work and workforce participation.

31. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Mental ability. Many employers are interested in how well a job
applicant can perform mental operations. Mental ability can be
categorized into general mental ability, applied mental skills, and
creativity. General mental ability is related to the overall ability to
learn and process information. Measures of general mental
ability have found to be related to performance across a range of
jobs (Schmidt & Hunter, 1998). Applied mental skills refer to the
application of mental ability (e.g., judgment, decision making,
problem solving, and planning) to solve organizational issues in
real-world contexts. Creativity is defined as flexibility of thought,
originality, and the ability to see beyond current structures and
operations (Cohen & Swerdlik, 1999).
Creativity Job performance (r = .58)
Applied mental skills Job performance (r = .28)
General mental ability Job performance (r = .24)
31
32. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Knowledge and skills.
Knowledge and skills are related to information already stored in long-
term memory. Direct measures of job knowledge and skills have
been found to predict job performance (Schmidt & Hunter, 1998)
Knowledge and skills Job performance (r = .42)
32
33. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Basic personality tendencies.
Huffcutt et al. (2001) found a growing preference to measure
personality traits using the “Big Five” personality dimensions:
Extroversion, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness (basic desire
to be liked by and to fit in with other people), Openness to
experience, and Emotional stability.
Agreeableness Job performance (r = .51)
33
34. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Applied social skills.
The ability to function effectively in social situations may be
influenced by both the underlying personality structure and the
acquired competencies. Specific applied social skills typically
evaluated in employment interviews include: oral communication
skills, interpersonal skills, leadership, and persuasiveness.
Applied social skills Job performance (r = .39)
34
35. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Interests and preferences.
Interests and preferences in the context of employment interviews
has been defined as “the verbal profession of interest in an
object, activity, task, or occupation” (Super, 1949, p. 377).
Interests and preferences Job performance (r = .24)
35
36. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Organizational fit.
Each organization has its own unique culture or climate, defined by
characteristics such as values, goals, norms, and attitudes. The
closer that the values and attitudes of an individual correspond
to those of the organization, the better the fit between them.
Organizational fit Job performance (r = .49)
36
37. Taxonomy of Psychological
Constructs
Physical appearance.
Physical attributes. Employers generally assess physical
characteristics such as health, appearance, attractiveness and
job-related characteristics such as physical ability, stamina and
agility.
37
42. Benefits
Employers identified the following benefits of Hiring
individuals with disabilities (Front-line hiring and C-
level):
Individual/Personal Attributes
Dedication and loyalty
Appreciation (of opportunity)
Dependability/reliability
Work ethics
More satisfied with the pay scale
Organizational Factors
42
43. Benefits

the organization
Helping employees feel comfortable interacting with
people with disabilities
Low turnover
Less prone to litigate
Fill the gap of reduced talent pool, especially in the
area of IT
Making the organization a more inclusive working
environment
43
44. Productivity Concerns
Low productivity (quantity)
High error rate (quality)
Lack of experience (tend to hire people with experience)
Lack of supply of qualified personnel
Lack of time to train
May need special treatment
People with disabilities may need more training, more
supervision, more special needs; can create resentment
among co-workers and affect morale.
44
45. Productivity Concerns
Lower skill sets (technical and applied social skills)
Reduced physical stamina
People with disabilities are slow learners
May need more supervision
Perception that employers need to lower standards
45
46. Attitudinal-Based Concerns
Other employees would be fearful of individuals with
disabilities
Close-mindedness of other employees
Lack of acceptance
Cannot see through disability
46
47. Employer Concerns
Don’t know how to interview individuals with disabilities
Lack of knowledge regarding ADA resources
People with disabilities are frequently being screened
out before getting a chance to interview
Risk aversion theory (easy to hire, difficult to fire)
Lack of familiarity with disability related issues
Lack of exposure to success stories
Lack of exposure to people with disabilities
47
48. Employer Concerns
Do not know how to develop a relationship with
individuals with disabilities
Concern about individual with a disability fitting into the
corporate culture
Lack of acceptance
Co-workers do not feel comfortable communicating with
individuals with disabilities
Some employees will feel the need to mother their co-
workers with a disability
48
49. Myths About People with
Disabilities
Lack of maturity
Poor soft skills
People with disabilities take things too personally
Poor grooming and hygiene
Individual health related issues
Poor mental health
People with disabilities lack workplace socialization skills
49
50. Barriers
Applicant pool of people with disabilities is small
Diversity training is offered occasionally and disability
is not emphasized.
Lack of practice/do not interview that many applicants
with disabilities
Do not have enough exposure to quickly learn to
communicate with people with disabilities. A similar
example will be communicating with immigrant workers
(e.g., Asian Indian IT workers).
50
51. Barriers
Do not know etiquette in communicating with people
with disabilities
Do not know how to discuss disability with people with
disabilities
Disability is not one of the focus of diversity in
corporation
51
52. Strategies to Improve Hiring
The use of temporary employment as a starting point
More effective use of internships
Contract to hire
Employer consultation services by job placement
agencies (e.g., DVR)
52
53. Strategies to Improve Hiring
Better assessment/better job-matching
Linking disability explicitly as part of diversity/disability
as a culture
Need to have more success stories/visible/TV and
other media
Better outreach efforts to the disability community
53
55. A Follow-up Employer Survey
On-line survey and collected information from 138 HR
and front-line managers about:
Diversity climates of their company
To what extent disability management is important
Knowledge about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
Knowledge about job accommodations
Perceptions of people with disabilities as productive
workers
Hiring strategies to increase employment of people with
disabilities
Efforts to hire people with disabilities.
55
56. Sample Characteristics

Average age of 45 years old
Employed predominantly in the:
health-care industries (19%),
finance (16%),
information technology (15%),
manufacturing (14%)
other services (except public administration) (12%), and
professional/technical (10%).
56
57. A Follow-up Employer Survey
The majority of these participants are employed by
companies with 501 or more employees (64%),
followed by companies with employees between
15-100 (16%), companies between 101 and 500
employees (12%), and companies with less than 15
employees (7%)
57
58. Employers in the Midwest
Companies support diversity
The emphasis of diversity is on gender and race but not
disability
Hiring people with disabilities is not in the diversity plan
No incentive or quotas to hire or retain people with
disabilities at the departmental or unit levels
Hiring managers are not trained in diversity management
related to individuals with disability
Resources for recruiting people with chronic illness and
disability are limited
Disability sensitivity training for line managers is less than
adequate
Hiring managers have no problem hiring and retaining
people with disability in their department.
58
59. Employers in the Midwest
HR and line managers believe that people with disability
have workplace socialization skills; are reliable; can perform
essential tasks; and meet productivity standards
Hiring people with disability help promote an inclusive
workplace
Hiring people with disability provide opportunity for
employees to learn to work with people from diverse groups
59
60. Employers in the Midwest
HR and line managers indicated that they are not as familiar
with ADA as they should
There are in-house resources to help with employment-
related ADA issues
HR and line managers indicated that they are familiar with
government resources for ADA and employment technical
assistance
There is no in-house job accommodations experts for
consultation
60
61. Employers in the Midwest
Companies are concerned about disability issues in the
workplace related to work injuries, alcohol and drug abuse,
and mental health issues (M=3.77, SD=.74).
Modest but positive rating of people with disabilities as a
productive and reliable worker with appropriate workplace
socialization skills (M=3.54, SD=.32).
Close to neutral rating to their knowledge about the
Americans with Disabilities Act and job accommodation
(M=3.22, SD=.64)
Inclusion of disability in the company’s diversity efforts
(M=3.20, SD=.50)
Use of innovative strategies to recruit and retain people with
disabilities (M=3.09, SD=.40).
61
62. Employers in the Midwest
Knowledge about the ADA and job accommodations in the
workplace is positively related to:
including disability as part of the company’s diversity efforts (r
= .67, p < .01)
commitment to hire people with disabilities (r = .64, p < .01),
diversity climate of the company (r = .51, p < .01),
strong concern about managing disabilities in the company (r
= .50, p < .01),
perceptions of people with disabilities as productive and reliable
workers (r = .28, p < .01), and
the use of innovative strategies to recruit and retain people with
disabilities (r = .28, p < .01).
62
63. Employers in the Midwest
Managers who rated themselves as having good
knowledge of the ADA also rated themselves as
having less negative perceptions about people with
disabilities as productive workers in the workplace (r =
-.32, p < .01).
Negative attitudes toward people with disabilities is
negatively related to perceptions of people with
disabilities as productive workers (r = -.35, p < .01),
inclusion of disability in the diversity effort (r = -.34, p <
.01), and commitments to hire people with disabilities (r
= -.35, p < .01).
63
64. Employers in the Midwest
Diversity climate of the company is related to the
inclusion of people with disabilities. Companies with a
strong commitment to diversity have a higher
propensity to:
include disability as part of their diversity efforts (r = .
67, p < .01)
a stronger commitment to hire people with disabilities
(r = .44, p < .01).
Inclusion of disability as diversity efforts of the
company is also significantly related to knowledge of
ADA and job accommodations (r = .67, p < .01).
64
65. Multiple Regression
A multiple regression was conducted with ADA
knowledge, concerns about disability
management, negative attitudes, positive
perceptions, diversity climates, inclusion of
disability in diversity efforts, and hiring strategies
were used as independent variables to predict the
commitment of the company to hire people with
disabilities.
65
66. Multiple Regression
The result was significant with R2 = .58, F(7, 125)
= 24.13, p < .001. (Large effect size)
An examination of the beta coefficients revealed
that only knowledge of ADA and job
accommodation (b = .23, p < .05) and inclusion of
disability in diversity efforts (b = .56, p < .01) are
significant in predicting commitment of the
company to hire people with disabilities.
66
67. Recommendations
Job development efforts must be expanded to:
work with companies to incorporate disability as part of
their diversity plans;
incorporate incentives to hire and retain people with
disabilities at the unit/departmental level;
provide disability sensitivity and stigma reduction
training, to provide ADA and job accommodation
training;
help design innovative recruitment and retention
strategies such as the use of private job placement
firms and state vocational rehabilitation agency and
resources, internship programs, work trails, and
mentoring.
67
68. Recommendations
Hiring managers are still ambivalent about people
with disabilities as productive and reliable workers
in the workplace and the potential negative impact
of accommodating people with disabilities on the
reactions of other workers in the workplace.
