Book excerpt: The recent mandatory, unpaid California state furloughs were unprecedented, yet we know little about how state workers themselves reacted to this major change in working conditions. This thesis set out to obtain this information, and to assess four hypotheses: 1) Most employees viewed the furloughs unfavorably due to the financial hardship they created; 2) Some employees viewed the furloughs favorably due to their benefits, which include more time for family, and childcare cost savings; 3) Most eligible employees volunteered to work over-time, and those who did not lived in dual-income households; 4) Employees who were eligible to retire within the next five years considered doing so sooner as a result of the furloughs. To complete this thesis, I distributed a survey to about 173 employees at the Sacramento Disability Determination Services Division, in November 2010. I developed the survey after completing a literature review on employee motivation in the public sector, desired employee work hours, and popular news articles on the furloughs. Based on the survey findings, frequency distribution reports, and statistical analyses, I was able to confirm the first hypothesis, partially confirm the second and third hypotheses, and was unable to confirm the fourth hypothesis. Notably, I discovered that there was a higher than expected rate of 19 percent of respondents who found the furloughs to be beneficial. Also, despite the hardship brought on by the furloughs, the majority of DDSD employees reported a high rate of job satisfaction and job meaningfulness. I confirmed that nearly half of respondents had state careers of five years or less, 44 percent were under the age of forty, and nearly 75 percent had college degrees. Finally, I considered implications of the findings for executives in state public service and suggestions for further research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 1 billion people worldwide have a disability, and they are all affected by politics. This two-volume work explores key topics at the heart of disability policy, such as voting, race, gender, age, health care, social security, transportation, abuse, and the environment. Disability policy is no longer an area that can be adequately addressed within major areas of public policy such as welfare, health, labor, and education. Disability has become widely acknowledged in recent decades, partly because of the increasing number of disabled citizens across all demographic populations. Advocates argue that diversity of all kinds deserves recognition and accommodation. This set examines policies targeting disability to provide a multifaceted description of the political participation of people with disabilities as well as disability policy development in the United States. The first volume focuses on political participation and voting issues, and the second volume covers disability public policy. In these two volumes, numerous scholars and experts in the social sciences and humanities explore timely topics that are key to disability policy questions, including activism, voting, race, gender, age, health care, social security, civil rights, abuse, the environment, and even death. Readers will better understand the challenges that policymakers face in grappling with controversies over issues of social engineering and public policy, often attempting to reconcile majority experience with minority rights. The chapters analyze the history of disability politics, describe the disability policy infrastructure as it currently exists in the United States, and provide insight into current disability-related controversies.
