abstract: 'Purpose A systematic review was conducted to review the effectiveness of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workplace accommodation (WA) regarding employment, work ability, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cost-benefit among disabled people. It also describes the evidence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gained on the barriers and facilitators of WA process to sustain
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment. Methods We reviewed systematically current scientific
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
evidence about effectiveness of WA among disabled persons. The outcomes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were employment, work ability, and cost-benefit. Qualitative studies of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment facilitators and barriers were also included. The population
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
comprised people with physical disability, visual impairment, hearing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
impairment, cognitive disability, or mental disability, aged 18-68
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
years. CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medic, OTseeker, PEDro,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PsycInfo, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
peer-reviewed articles published in English from January 1990 to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
November 2012. Results Three quantitative (one randomized controlled,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
one concurrently controlled, and one cohort) and eight qualitative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
studies met the inclusion criteria. There was moderate evidence that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specific types of WA (vocational counselling and guidance, education and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
self-advocacy, help of others, changes in work schedules, work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organization, and special transportation) promote employment among
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
physically disabled persons and reduce costs. There was low evidence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that WA (liaison, education, work aids, and work techniques) coordinated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by case managers increases return to work and is cost-effective when
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared with the usual care of persons with physical and cognitive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabilities. The key facilitators and barriers of employment were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
self-advocacy, support of the employer and community, amount of training
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and counselling, and flexibility of work schedules and work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organization. Conclusions More high-quality studies using validated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
measures of the work ability and functioning of disabled persons are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
needed. The identified barriers and facilitators found in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
qualitative studies should be used to develop quantitative study
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
designs.'
