abstract: 'People with disabilities (PwDs) are under-represented in the workforce,
|
|
|
|
especially during times of economic recession. Supported employment is
|
|
|
|
recognized as an effective practice for promoting work inclusion of
|
|
|
|
PwDs, including people with intellectual disabilities (IDs). This study
|
|
|
|
aimed at exploring the experiences of workers with ID or mental health
|
|
|
|
conditions who received supported employment services in Greece.
|
|
|
|
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine workers with ID and
|
|
|
|
five with mental health conditions. The thematic analysis revealed that
|
|
|
|
emotional pressure was experienced by the participants with mental
|
|
|
|
health conditions and those with ID during the job search and the
|
|
|
|
adaptation period, respectively. On-the-job training was available for
|
|
|
|
the participants with ID and assistance in finding suitable job
|
|
|
|
opportunities was given to those with mental health conditions. All
|
|
|
|
participants highlighted the importance of maintaining employment. The
|
|
|
|
findings can inform efforts on developing employment services targeting
|
|
|
|
social and work inclusion for PwDs.'
