Abstract

Purpose: This review and synthesis aims to answer the following question: what do existing empirical studies tell us about the relationship between organizational practices and their outcomes in terms of the performance, well-being and sustainable employment of employees with disabilities?

Methods: This review builds on a scoping review of empirical studies of organizational practices aimed at the hiring and retention of people with disabilities. It focuses on a specific group of studies identified in the scoping review: studies examining outcomes of organizational practices for employees with disabilities (EWD). Additional selection criteria were: (1) studies focused on the performance, well-being and sustainable employment of EWD; (2) studies used quantitative methods; and (3) studies were published in high-quality journals. This resulted in 27 articles.

Results: Three clusters of organizational practices received most attention in the articles: workplace relations and organizational culture; accommodations; and leadership. The studies found significant positive and negative relationships between practices in these clusters and the three outcomes mentioned above. These empirical findings were supported by the theoretical perspectives used in the studies. Although diverse, most of these theoretical perspectives share their focus on interactions between individuals and their (work) environment.

Discussion: We recommend that future research into the outcomes of organizational practices for EWD should be both broader (examining more clusters of practices and their outcomes for people with and without disabilities) and deeper (examining similar practices-outcome combinations in different contexts). This will increase our understanding of what practices work for whom under what circumstances.

残疾员工的组织实践及其结果:定量研究综述与综合。
目的:本综述和综合旨在回答以下问题:现有的实证研究告诉我们,在残疾员工的绩效、幸福感和可持续就业方面,组织实践与其结果之间的关系是什么?方法:这篇综述建立在旨在雇用和保留残疾人的组织实践的实证研究的范围审查。它侧重于范围审查中确定的一组特定研究:检查残疾员工(EWD)组织实践结果的研究。额外的选择标准是:(1)研究侧重于EWD的绩效、福祉和可持续就业;(2)研究采用定量方法;(3)研究发表在高质量期刊上。这产生了27篇文章。结果:三组组织实践在文章中最受关注:工作场所关系和组织文化;住宿;和领导能力。研究发现,这些集群的实践与上述三种结果之间存在显著的正相关和负相关关系。这些实证结果得到了研究中所使用的理论视角的支持。尽管这些理论观点各不相同,但大多数理论观点都关注个人与其(工作)环境之间的相互作用。讨论:我们建议未来对EWD组织实践结果的研究应该更广泛(检查更多的实践集群及其对残疾人和非残疾人的结果)和更深入(检查不同背景下类似的实践-结果组合)。这将增加我们对什么实践在什么情况下对谁有效的理解。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original papers on the rehabilitation, reintegration, and prevention of disability in workers. The journal offers investigations involving original data collection and research synthesis (i.e., scoping reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses). Papers derive from a broad array of fields including rehabilitation medicine, physical and occupational therapy, health psychology and psychiatry, orthopedics, oncology, occupational and insurance medicine, neurology, social work, ergonomics, biomedical engineering, health economics, rehabilitation engineering, business administration and management, and law.  A single interdisciplinary source for information on work disability rehabilitation, the Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation helps to advance the scientific understanding, management, and prevention of work disability.
