Full textThere is an increase in the number of people with disabilities entering, and in the workplace. Industrialised countries are encountering a workforce that is ageing, which makes the prevalence of disability, due to chronic illness amongst employees, more evident. However, even with legislation and policies that support people in the workplace, such as the Employment Equity Act 55 of 1998, the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act 53 of 2003 and the Code of Good Practice on Disability in the Workplace, many people still choose not to disclose their disabilities. Therefore, the main purpose of the study is to identify the perceived factors that could possibly prevent the disclosure of disability in the workplace. The study was conducted at one of the universities in the Western Cape. The study was qualitative in nature and made use of semi-structured interviews. Ten participants took part in the study and comprised of two academic staff members from each of the faculties on the main campus. Content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data where various themes and subthemes emerged.

Full textDisability in South African labour law is reduced to incapacity. An evaluation of disability and incapacity was made to advocate a clear conceptual break between the two concepts. Also, that disability should be grounded in a social model paradigm of disability which was a materialist critique of how capitalism constructs disability. To enhance the analysis discourse analysis was employed to illustrate how language, ideology and power sustained the notion of disability in capitalist society. A comparative analysis was made drawing on American disability jurisprudence and Canadian disability jurisprudence to illustrate the difference in approach between the two legal systems with a suggestion that the Canadian approach was better suited to the development of a South African disability law. And the development of South African disability law it was argued would benefit if a legal construction of disability was crafted to deal with the obstacles that disabled people encounter in the work-place.

Full textPerez-Gualdron, Leyla M. "A longitudinal study of a social justice orientation model for Latina/o students." Thesis, Boston College, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/3716.
Full textResearchers have argued that whether Latina/o students and other students of Color resist their negative educational experiences with feelings of hopelessness or consider them challenges to overcome, depends on whether they have developed a Social Justice Orientation (SJO) (Cammarota, 2004; Diemer, 2009; Watts, Griffith, & Abdul-Adil, 1999). SJO is the motivation to promote justice and equality among all in society. The purpose of the present study was to develop and test a longitudinal model of predictors and outcomes of SJO among Latina/o youths, the SJOLY model. The constructs investigated were (a) environmental factors (i.e., school relational and language climates), (b) personal skills (English proficiency and Spanish language background) and characteristics (SJO and agency), and (c) social (i.e., community engagement) and academic outcomes (school behavioral disengagement, grades, and school dropout). The study was conducted with a subsample of Latinas/os taken from the National Educational Longitudinal Study of 1988. Participants were enrolled in eighth grade (N = 1,472), sampled from different schools and regions in the U.S., and followed through three waves of data collection until the 12th grade. The age range of the participants at Time 1 was 13 years to 16 years (M = 14.46, SD = .65), and 49.6% were girls. The SJOLY model was tested using structural equation modeling (SEM). Results indicated that school relational climate was a positive predictor of SJO, which in turn predicted more community and school engagement, higher grades, and decreased likelihood of dropping out of school via its impact on personal agency. In addition, school language climate and language skills predicted greater sense of personal agency, which in turn predicted higher grades and decreased likelihood of dropping out. Gender differences were observed, as more SJO was associated with higher levels of personal agency for girls, but not for boys. Higher levels of personal agency were associated with less likelihood of dropping out of schools for boys, but not for girls. Implications of the study results for education, counseling, and research are discussed

Full textThesis advisor: James Marini
Using social capital theory as a conceptual framework, this qualitative study of one Massachusetts district analyzed how principals’ relational trust and interconnectedness with central office administrators (COAs) correlated with their perceptions of district efforts to support their growth and development. Data included interviews with principals and COAs and document analyses. Findings revealed a decided split among principals, with some reporting high trust levels and close connections with COAs and others reporting distrust and isolation. Of the district’s five major initiatives designed to support principals, two were perceived positively by most principals, two received mixed reactions with connected principals more favorable than isolated principals, and one received widespread negative perceptions. District initiatives widely perceived to be effective mirrored principal goals, provided opportunities for COA direct assistance, and were structured to facilitate the development of professional assistance relationships. Conversely, the initiatives with mixed or negative perceptions lacked such relationship-building opportunities

Full textIn this thesis, I examine two main questions regarding accessibility. The first question concerns why retroactive requirements for increased accessibility, enkelt avhjälpta hinder (easily eliminated barriers), have been added to the Swedish building legislation. The question is examined by a review of older building codes and reports published by disability commissions. The review found that accessibility requirements have existed in building regulations since the 1960s. The extent of the requirements has varied, but many requirements set in the new policy are relatively similar to those in older building codes. The study gives two explanations for why the new policy is needed. First, a majority of the built environment in Sweden was constructed before any accessibility requirements were legislated. Second, the actors in the planning and building process have previously lacked sufficient knowledge on disability. The study shows that the new policy is a means to raise the knowledge on disability and accessibility. The second question concerns how the new policy has been implemented in Swedish municipalities, and whether some specific implementation strategies have been particularly effective. Through literature reviews and interviews in a municipality, two main factors are identified as crucial for the success of accessibility adaptations: how well the work has been planned in advance and how the collaboration with the disability movement has been arranged.

Full textStudiens övergripande syfte är att studera och belysa fenomenet diskriminering i relation till individer som besitter en synlig funktionsnedsättning. Den huvudsakliga empirin har grundats i kvalitativa intervjuer och fullgjort inflytelserika kunskaper. Huvudresultatet har därav exponerat en kontextburen diskriminering, i form av sociala samhällsstrukturer och fysiskt missanpassade offentliga miljöer. Diskriminering påvisas således vara ett vanligt förekommande fenomen och uttrycker sig av ojämlika förhållanden, i form av bristande inkludering i sociala situationer. Studiens resultat har dock visat generella orsaksförklaringar av denna problematik – som bottnar i bristande kunskaper, och i sin tur, utgör negativa föreställningar. Studien uppmärksammar därav människor med synliga funktionsnedsättningar, i en betydelse av att alltmer naturligt inkluderas i samhället. Utifrån studiens analys har fyra framgående teman identifierats; bristande inkludering, mellanmänskliga interaktioner, negativa tilldragelser och bristande kunskap.

Nowadays, the deficiency is a multidimensional thematic, approached by the most various areas of the Science, from the spheres of health, like medicine, to Social Sciences, such as Law and Politics. However, this plurivision is something recent, so that until the middle of the 21st century a purely biomedical perspective of the phenomenon of disability prevailed in a hegemonic way, considering it as pathology. The social model of disability emerges as an innovative paradigm, defining disability as the livingness in bodies with impairments in environments with barriers. In these terms, it becomes part of human diversity, not a stigma. In spite of this interpretative revolution, the deficiency is still governed by common standards, by charitable attitudes or even relegated to social invisibility. The Brazilian Law contains a vast number of protective norms for people with disabilities, however, they need enforcement. This misfortune is due in part to the lack of studies on this topic from a legal perspective. Furthermore, even within the sociology of health, the social model is still poorly diffused. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze the social model of disability from a Law perspective, showing "if" and "how" the internal legal system is adopting such archetype. The methodology used was the analysis of the content of national and international decisions and legislations, as well as the bibliographic review about the disability. The results found in this study show that the Brazilian State has a mechanism to enforce the rights of people with functional diversity, though, obstacles, such as invisibility, prejudice and socioinstitutional disengagement represent environmental barriers that generate and promote the exclusion of the disabled.
Hodiernamente, a deficiência é uma temática multidimensional, podendo ser abordada pelas mais variadas áreas da Ciência, desde as esferas da saúde, como a medicina, até as Ciências Sociais, como o Direito e Política. Entretanto, esta plurivisão é algo recente, de maneira que até meados do século XXI prevalecia de modo hegemônico uma perspectiva puramente biomédica do fenômeno da deficiência, considerando-a como uma patologia. O modelo social da deficiência surge como um paradigma inovador, definindo deficiência como a vivência em corpos com impedimentos em ambientes com barreiras. Neste sentido, ela se torna parte da diversidade humana e não um estigma. Apesar dessa revolução interpretativa, a deficiência ainda é governada pelos ditames do senso comum, por posturas caritativas ou mesmo relegada à invisibilidade social. O Direito brasileiro contém um amplo rol de normas protetivas das pessoas com deficiência, que contudo, carecem de densificação. Essa mazela deve-se em parte a carência de estudos sobre a temática pela ótica jurídica. Ademais, mesmo no âmbito da sociologia da saúde, o modelo social ainda é pouco difundido. Portanto, o objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o modelo social da deficiência pela perspectiva do Direito, demonstrando “se” e “como” o ordenamento jurídico interno está adotando tal arquétipo. A metodologia utilizada foi a análise de conteúdo de decisões e legislações nacionais e internacionais, bem como a revisão bibliográfica sobre a deficiência. Os resultados encontrados demonstram que o Estado brasileiro dispõe de mecanismo de efetivação dos direitos das pessoas com diversidade funcional, todavia, óbices, como a invisibilidade, preconceito e descomprometimento socioinstitucional representam barreiras ambientais que geram e promovem a exclusão dos deficientes.

Full textRefugees with disabilities belong to two marginalized groups, which makes them particularly vulnerable. The collective knowledge about their situation is insufficient. The purpose of this study is to describe, and investigate, the obstacles that refugees with disabilities may encounter during the initial stages of the resettlement process. The study was carried out in the form of a literature review. A literature search resulted in 11 peer-reviewed, scientific articles, in which empirical, original research is presented. The analysis was conducted using Michael Oliver's social model and intersectional theory. The results show that lack of accessibility, information, and knowledge causes experiences of disability during the resettlement. Marginalization processes occur in the intersections between refugee status, disability, class, ethnicity, and gender. Considering the results, an attempt to enhance the coordination between the efforts of various agencies is proposed, to improve the situation for refugees with disabilities.
