취업한 장애인의 체계적 경력개발을 위한 모형 연구

Abstract

The Research is aimed at analyzing the problems workers with disabilities experience in the workplace, and at presenting a model for systematic career development as a means to address their problems. The Research analyzes job conversion, information sources, work stress and its major causes, the reasons behind career conversion, and conditions of job transition/conversion. The Research also looks into the directions of career development among workers with disabilities through their career patterns and post-retirement plans. An analysis of degrees of satisfaction in various aspects of living has confirmed that satisfaction in the workplace is the most crucial component for the overall quality of life. It also shows that workers with disabilities show attitudes toward work and characteristics indistinguishable from other workers - measured against positive attitude to work, the will toward career resilience, and a sense of efficacy in seeking job. Chapter 2 sums up the lessons that career development theories offer by studying those theories from individual, organizational and sociological viewpoints. Chapter 3 examines the status of life in the workplace among people with disabilities based on a 1995 survey of people with disabilities and statistical yearbooks issued by the National Statistical Office. It also summarizes problems relating to career development among people with disabilities. Chapter 4 analyzes in-depth interviews with workers with disabilities and their employers. The major outcomes are briefly summarized in this excerpt. Chapter 5, underpinned by the analyses of Chapter 4, offers a model that contains the most necessary components for career development among workers with disabilities and ways for systematic communications. Chapter 6 proposes various supportive steps needed to put the model to use. ...
