Follow us Worker Adaptation and Employer Accommodation Following the Onset of a Health Impairment
Daly, Mary C., and John Bound. 1996. "Worker Adaptation and Employer Accommodation Following the Onset of a Health Impairment." Journals of Gerontology Series B: Psychological Sciences and Social Sciences, 51(2): S53-S60.
The responses of workers and their employees to the onset of work-limiting impairments were investigated using data from the new Health and Retirement Study. The results indicate that many workers who suffer from health limitations are directly accommodated by their employers, and that those who do not receive direct accommodation frequently adapt to their limitations by altering their job demands or by changing jobs. These findings point to the potential for adjustments on both sides of the market: by employers, in the form of job accommodation, and by employees, in the form of job change.
