Employees’ perception of the factors that prevent disclosure of disability status to the employer: case of a selected higher education institutionVan der Bergh, Euneece Audrey January 2019 (has links)
Magister Commercii - MCom / There is an increase in the number of people with disabilities entering, and in the
workplace. Industrialised countries are encountering a workforce that is ageing, which
makes the prevalence of disability, due to chronic illness amongst employees, more
evident. However, even with legislation and policies that support people in the
workplace, such as the Employment Equity Act 55 of 1998, the Broad-Based Black
Economic Empowerment Act 53 of 2003 and the Code of Good Practice on Disability
in the Workplace, many people still choose not to disclose their disabilities. Therefore,
the main purpose of the study is to identify the perceived factors that could possibly
prevent the disclosure of disability in the workplace.
The study was conducted at one of the universities in the Western Cape. The study
was qualitative in nature and made use of semi-structured interviews. Ten participants
took part in the study and comprised of two academic staff members from each of the
faculties on the main campus. Content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data
where various themes and subthemes emerged.

El efecto de la discapacidad en la participación laboral en la economía peruana / The Effect of Disability on Labor ParticipationJimenez Navarro, Roxana Melissa 22 October 2020 (has links)
Una de las preocupaciones que tienen los países en vías de desarrollo es el desempleo. Por este motivo, la presente investigación se centra en los efectos que tiene un conjunto de variables socioeconómicas sobre la empleabilidad resaltando a la discapacidad. Pese a las políticas a favor del empleo formal por parte del Estado peruano, ser discapacitado en Perú restringe la participación laboral.
En el presente estudio se utilizó la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares (ENAHO) desde el año 2016 al 2019. Asimismo, se desarrolló tres categorías de discapacidad siguiendo la literatura (Discapacidad sensorial, Discapacidad física y Discapacidad Mental), así como la categoría discapacidades que englobe a las seis limitaciones mencionadas en la base de la ENAHO. Por otro lado, para la aproximación metodológica se aplicó los estudios de Wilkins (2003), Malo (2004), Campolieti (2007), siendo la metodología Logit y Probit la que analiza el efecto directo de la discapacidad en la empleabilidad y la metodología Heckprobit analiza el efecto de la discapacidad en la empleabilidad vía una limitante en el proceso educativo.
En efecto, el estudio concluye que la discapacidad tiene un efecto negativo en la probabilidad de participación laboral. En los resultados se muestra que la discapacidad mental tiene un mayor efecto negativo significativo en la empleabilidad cuando se utiliza la metodología Logit y Probit. Mientras que al aplicar la metodología Heckprobit es la discapacidad física la que tiene un mayor efecto negativo significativo en la empleabilidad porque presenta mayor dificultad en el proceso educativo formativo. / One of the concerns that developing countries have is unemployment. For this reason, this research focuses on the effects of a set of socioeconomic variables on employability by highlighting disability. Despite policies in favor of formal employment by the Peruvian State, being disabled in Peru restricts labor participation.
This study used the National Household Survey (ENAHO) from 2016 to 2019. In addition, three categories of disability were developed following the literature (Sensory Disability, Physical Disability and Mental Disability), as well as the category of disabilities that encompasses the six limitations mentioned in the basis of ENAHO. On the other hand, for methodological approximation the studies of Wilkins (2003), Malo (2004), Campolieti (2007) were applied, with the Logit and Probit methodology analyzing the direct effect of disability on employability and the Heckprobit methodology analyzing the effect of disability on employability via a limitation in the educational process.
Indeed, the study concludes that disability has a negative effect on the likelihood of employment participation. The results show that mental disability has a greater significant negative effect on employability when using the Logit and Probit methodology. While applying the Heckprobit methodology it is physical disability that has the greatest significant negative effect on employability because it presents greater difficulty in the educational process. / Trabajo de investigación
