abstract: 'Purpose. aEuro integral Little is known about the work experiences of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
youth as they transition to adulthood. The purpose of this study is to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
explore the characteristics associated with disabled youth who are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employed and the types of employment they are engaged in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Method. aEuro integral Data were analysed using the 2006 Participation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and Activity Limitation Survey. Youth aged 15--29 and 20--24 were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
selected to explore the characteristics of adolescents who are employed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and where they are working (n aEuroS== aEuroS2534).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results. aEuro integral Several differences in who was employed and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
characteristics of their employers were noted between the two age
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups. Geographic location played a more significant role for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment among youth (15--19 year olds) with mobility impairments
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared to other disability types. Employed youth from both age groups
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
had their disability a long time while few people who were recently
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
diagnosed were working. Transportation was a significant predictor of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment for both age groups. Young adults (20--24) worked more hours
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
per week, in different industries, and more of them were self-employed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared to the 15--19 year olds. Employment status and work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
characteristics also differed by type of disability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusions. aEuro integral Rehabilitation and life skills counsellors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
need to pay particular attention to youth who may need extra help in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gaining employment.'
