abstract: 'Purpose The current study was undertaken to understand and describe the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
meaning of work as well as the barriers and facilitators perceived by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
young people with mental health conditions for gaining and maintaining
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment. Materials and Methods Employing a purposive and maximum
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
variation sampling, 30 young people were recruited and interviewed. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
respondents were Singapore residents with a mean age of 26.8 years (SD =
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4.5, range 20-34 years); the majority were males (56.7\%), of Chinese
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ethnicity (63.3\%), and employed (73.3\%), at the time of the interview.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verbatim transcripts were analysed using inductive thematic analysis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results Three global themes emerged from the analyses of the narratives,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which included (i) the meaning of employment, (ii) barriers to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment comprising individual, interpersonal and systemic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
difficulties and challenges participants faced while seeking and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sustaining employment and (iii) facilitators of employment that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
consisted of individual and interpersonal factors that had helped the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
young persons to gain and maintain employment. Conclusions Stigma and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discrimination emerged as one of the most frequently mentioned
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment barriers. These barriers are not insurmountable and can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
overcome both through legislation as well as through the training and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
support of young people with mental health conditions.'
