INCLUSIVE WORKPLACE- A FAIR SHOT FOR DISABLED
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
A disability is a physical or mental condition that limits a person‟s movements, senses, or activities.A disability can be permanent or temporary; as well as visible or invisible. People with disability may have the skills that are required in an organization. Inclusive cultures demonstrate organizational practices and goals in which those having different backgrounds are welcomed and treated equally in the organization. Unfortunately not many organizations are welcome to people with disability due to the stigma attached to them. Not all are accepted in organizations. If a person with disability is accepted then the infrastructural issues have to be dealt with. Normally issues like infrastructure, hike in pay scale, etc are not discussed by the employees with disability to the management due to the sole reason of appearing ungrateful. So before one hires the next time, people with disability should be considered because research studies shows that employees with disabilities have average or better attendance, job performance and safety records than their normal counterparts. The next issue to be considered is the facilities like change in infrastructure are to be provided when hiring one. Utilizing the employees with disabilities can be dealt by the technique called job design where the work can be designed by matching impairments with skill requirements. Disability is in the mind. When a person with disability through his skills and talent can strive to come this far thenit becomes the responsibility of an employer to provide equal job opportunity with suitable working environment.
