Description

Fact: Persons with disabilities are America's largest minority and most undertapped workforce. Fact: One in five working Americans will experience disability during their prime working years. Fact: The Americans with Disabilities Act presents new challenges--and opportunities--to employers. Fact: Employers are faced with skyrocketing costs for healthcare, disability payments, and workers compensation. Disability in the workplace can no longer be ignored. Employers must be prepared to manage it--not only to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), but to save money and careers. Here at last is the book that shows how. Written by three of the country's foremost authorities on the subject, Disability Management will help you find your way through territory that has been largely uncharted and commonly misunderstood. Step by step, you'll learn to create a disability management program tailored for your organization. You'll find targeted policies, practices, and procedures on every aspect of disability management--from assessing current needs to implementing low-cost job accommodations (ranging from flexible hours to specialized computers) that often boost productivity for employees both with and without disabilities. Dozens of ready-to-use forms and checklists will help you ensure that no crucial areas are being overlooked. Disability Management contains the complete ADA regulations and helps you interpret the Act's more ambiguous concepts. In-depth profiles of disability management programs in eight organizations offer models that you can adapt to your own needs. Also included in this comprehensive book are guidelines for using a case management approach, monitoring and evaluating your program, training supervisors--and preventing disabilities through sound health and safety practices. With a solid disability management program in place, your organization will get a better return on its financial and human resources. By following the guidelines in Disability Management, any business can achieve these far-reaching results: full compliance with the ADA and other legislation; a healthier, more productive, and more diverse workforce; reduced costs for medical care, disability benefits, and workers compensation; fewer absences and workplace disruptions when disability strikes; enhanced employee morale based on increased opportunity; and a better competitive position in a global economy.
