abstract: 'BACKGROUND: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability
and Health (ICF) was approved by the World Health Assembly in 2001. Ten
years later, strong arguments have arisen regarding the added value of
ICF to the policies on employment and the outcomes at the workplace. As
a conceptual framework, ICF has universality because of its inclusive
and comprehensive view of human functioning. At a practical level ICF
can be used to quantify the impact of impairment on an individual''s
ability to act in his/her environment and to assess interventions to
minimize the impact of disability and maximize functioning.
OBJECTIVE: To explore key indicators of social participation (life
habits) of persons with disabilities, particularly related to work,
among environmental and personal factors.
METHODOLOGY/PARTICIPANTS: Data were collected by self-administered
questionnaires from a convenience sample of 149 working-age persons with
disabilities.
RESULTS: Social participation is a construct composed by multiple
components and employment domain is the strongest indicator of
participation. Correlations between social participation and personal
factors, such as self-efficacy and attitudes towards disability were
moderate. Those who are employed scored higher quality of life in terms
of satisfaction with life, more positive attitudes toward disabilities
and higher self-efficacy than the ones who are retired or unemployed.
Persons using adapted wheelchair and those who were involved in
wheelchair selection scored higher in social participation in general,
performance at work, and quality of life. Age and disability duration
were not associated with participants'' employment status.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that rehabilitation
and vocational agents, like physiotherapists and other professionals,
should have knowledge and understanding of the multiple factors that
influence persons with disabilities'' participation at work. Programs
should provide appropriate wheelchairs, skills training, empowerment and
problem-solving strategies in labour activities and occupational
environment to promote employment of working-age persons with
disabilities.'
