Download or read book Disability Management and Workplace Integration written by Henry G. Harder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disability Management is perceived and understood to be an important approach to reducing the negative impact, for workers and the company, of absence due to illness and accidents, and to assisting those with disabilities to enter or re-enter the workplace. Disability Management has already become established in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the USA. Recently European countries have begun to promote the approach in order to reduce illness related expenses and avoid unemployment, early retirement and costs to the welfare state. In Disability Management and Workplace Integration leading researchers from around the World consider the development of Disability Management over the last three decades. They examine the on-going debate about methodology and implementation of disability management strategies and programmes, highlighting the critical debate about the implications of a stricter cost-benefit approach to Disability Management theory and practice. Professionals involved in workplace integration, researchers approaching workplace integration from a variety of perspectives such as sociology; rehabilitative medicine; psychology; education; social policy; and economics, and students on a range of courses, will appreciate this valuable book.

Download or read book Handbook of Work Disability written by Patrick Loisel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the developing field of Work Disability Prevention. Work disability does not only involve occupational disorders originating from the work or at the workplace, but addresses work absenteeism originating from any disorder or accident. This topic has become of primary importance due to the huge compensation costs and health issues involved. For employers it is a unique burden and in many countries compensation is not even linked to the cause of the disorder. In the past twenty years, studies have accumulated which emphasize the social causes of work disability. Governments and NGOs such as the World Bank, the International Labor Organization, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development have produced alarming reports on the extent of this problem for developed and developing countries. However, no comprehensive book is presently available to help them address this emerging field where new knowledge should induce new ways of management.

Download or read book Disability Management written by Sheila H. Akabas and published by AMACOM/American Management Association. This book was released on 1992-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fact: Persons with disabilities are America's largest minority and most undertapped workforce. Fact: One in five working Americans will experience disability during their prime working years. Fact: The Americans with Disabilities Act presents new challenges--and opportunities--to employers. Fact: Employers are faced with skyrocketing costs for healthcare, disability payments, and workers compensation. Disability in the workplace can no longer be ignored. Employers must be prepared to manage it--not only to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), but to save money and careers. Here at last is the book that shows how. Written by three of the country's foremost authorities on the subject, Disability Management will help you find your way through territory that has been largely uncharted and commonly misunderstood. Step by step, you'll learn to create a disability management program tailored for your organization. You'll find targeted policies, practices, and procedures on every aspect of disability management--from assessing current needs to implementing low-cost job accommodations (ranging from flexible hours to specialized computers) that often boost productivity for employees both with and without disabilities. Dozens of ready-to-use forms and checklists will help you ensure that no crucial areas are being overlooked. Disability Management contains the complete ADA regulations and helps you interpret the Act's more ambiguous concepts. In-depth profiles of disability management programs in eight organizations offer models that you can adapt to your own needs. Also included in this comprehensive book are guidelines for using a case management approach, monitoring and evaluating your program, training supervisors--and preventing disabilities through sound health and safety practices. With a solid disability management program in place, your organization will get a better return on its financial and human resources. By following the guidelines in Disability Management, any business can achieve these far-reaching results: full compliance with the ADA and other legislation; a healthier, more productive, and more diverse workforce; reduced costs for medical care, disability benefits, and workers compensation; fewer absences and workplace disruptions when disability strikes; enhanced employee morale based on increased opportunity; and a better competitive position in a global economy.
