abstract: 'BACKGROUND: Little is known why some organizations employ vulnerable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workers and others do not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationships between the attitude, intention,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skills and barriers of employers and employment of vulnerable workers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
METHODS: We included 5,601 inclusive organizations (>= 1\% of employees
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
had a disability, was long-term unemployed or a school dropout) and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6,236 non-inclusive organizations of the Netherlands Employers Work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Survey 2014-2019. We operationalized employer factors based on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Integrative Model of Behavioral Prediction as attitude (negative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
impact), intention (mission statement regarding social inclusion),
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skills (human resources policies and practices), and barriers (economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
conditions and type of work). We used multivariate-adjusted logistic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regression models.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RESULTS: Compared to non-inclusive organizations, inclusive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organizations had a more negative attitude (OR:0.81) and a stronger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
intention to employ vulnerable workers (OR:6.09). Regarding skills,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inclusive organizations had more inclusive human resources practices
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(OR:4.83) and initiated more supporting human resources actions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(OR:4.45). Also, they adapted more work conditions towards the needs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employees (OR:1.52), negotiated about work times and absenteeism
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(OR:1.49), and had general human resources practices on, for example,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employability (OR:1.78). Inclusive organizations had less barriers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reflected by better financial results (OR:1.32), more employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
opportunities (OR:1.33) and more appropriate work tasks (OR:1.40).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, inclusive organizations reported more positive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
results on the employer factors of the Integrative Model of Behavioral
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Prediction, except for a more negative attitude. The more negative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
attitude might reflect a more realistic view on the efforts to employ
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
vulnerable groups, and suggests that other unmeasured emotions and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
beliefs are more positive.'
