abstract: 'Purpose. Having a disability is a barrier to securing and maintaining
employment. Most research has focussed on employment barriers among
adults, while very little is known about young people''s experience
finding paid work.
Method. Young people aged 15-24 were selected from the 2006
Participation and Activity Limitation Survey to explore the barriers and
discrimination they experienced in seeking employment (n = 1898).
Results. Our findings show that teens and young adults with disabilities
encountered several barriers and discrimination in seeking paid
employment. The types of barriers that these young people encountered
varied by age and type of disability. There were fewer yet different
types of barriers to working that were encountered between the two age
groups (teens and young adults). Several socio-demographic factors also
influenced barriers to working. Severity of disability, type and
duration of disability, level of education, gender, low income,
geographic location and the number of people living in the household all
influenced the kind of barriers and work discrimination for these young
people.
Conclusions. Rehabilitation and life skills counsellors need to pay
particular attention to age, type of disability and socio-demographic
factors of teens and young adults who may need extra help in gaining
employment.'
