abstract: 'Purpose/Objective: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic led
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to devastating economic impacts and psychosocial changes for individuals
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
around the world, including people with chronic illness and disabilities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(CID). This study explored the impacts on employment and how it related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to stress and satisfaction with life during COVID-19 between people with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and without CID. Research Method/Design: A cross-sectional study design
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
was used with 1,380 adults from 20 countries who were employed before
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the COVID-19 pandemic, including 318 people with CID. Statistical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
methods (i.e., descriptive statistics, chi-square analyses, two-way
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis of variances) were used to analyze the time, employment, group,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and interaction effects. Results: There were three main findings. (1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compared with those without CID, individuals with CID were more likely
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to have their employment impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and they were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
more often laid off or dismissed from their job. (2) Individuals with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CID reported significantly higher stress and lower life satisfaction
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared with those without CID during the COVID-19 pandemic regardless
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its impacts on employment. (3) Individuals whose employment was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
impacted reported significantly lower life satisfaction during the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
COVID-19 pandemic regardless of their CID status.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion/Implications: Findings highlight the employment and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
psychosocial impacts of a global pandemic and provide implications for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
moving forward in regards to vocational and psychosocial intervention
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
services and supports that will be needed, especially for those with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CID.
|
|
|

|
|
|
Impact and Implications This study extends existing literature by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analyzing impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
across the globe on employment and psychosocial outcomes (i.e., stress
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and life satisfaction) for people with chronic illness and disability
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(CID) compared with those without CID and informs research and practices
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for supporting those who have been adversely impacted. Given the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significant negative impacts of COVID-19 on employment for individuals
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with CID in comparison with those without CID, vocational rehabilitation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
agencies should provide vocational supports for individuals with CID and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work to develop new employment options. Researchers and practitioners
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
should develop effective vocational and psychosocial intervention
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strategies (e.g., through telehealth) to resolve global employment and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mental health issues related to COVID-19 to minimize inequality between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
individuals with and without CID and improve their quality of life.'
