abstract: 'Purpose The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected the lives
of people with disabilities (PWD). How the pandemic affects the
employment of PWD and employers has yet to be determined. We aimed to
investigate the employment consequences of the pandemic as experienced
by PWD and employers. The research questions were: (1) What employment
effects do PWD experience, and what business changes do employers
encounter as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic? (2) What challenges have
PWD encountered during the pandemic? Methods Cross-sectional online
surveys of 733 PWD and 67 employers in the Midwestern United States.
Results Compared to non-disabled peers, PWD encountered more challenges
in employment during the pandemic. We found high percentages of both
employers and PWD experiencing employment changes and business shutdown
during the pandemic. For PWD whose employment was not affected, 14.6\%
of the participants (n = 107) expected a loss of income and worried
about the economic uncertainty of the pandemic. Unemployment for PWD is
high due to illness or disability, being laid-off or furloughed,
business reductions, and not feeling safe to work. However, only about
18.6\% of unemployed PWD (n = 16) received pay or benefits for the time
they were not working even though more than half filed for unemployment
benefits. Conclusions The pandemic adversely affected employment of PWD
as reported by workers and employers. Findings parallel the experience
of the non-disabled workforce, but reveal vulnerabilities that reflect
disability consequences and the need for job accommodations. Results
reveal emergent needs for policy supports to reduce the disparities
experienced by PWD in the workplace.'
