Characteristics of Workplaces and Employers That Embrace Cognitive Diversity on the Work Floor.
People with intellectual disability (ID) are only marginally represented in the competitive labor market. This article aims to explore what Norwegian employers describe as important features of their workplace that enable labor market participation for employees with ID. The article was based on a mixed method approach that combined qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey with employers who have hired people with ID. Findings suggest that building inclusive environments and individualized supports can be effective for supporting employees with ID. More research is needed to further understand how employers can provide sufficient support to their workers, and successfully hire and retain workers with ID.
