Social security by employment Today’s social security and today’s labour market: anyone that can, has to work and stay at work so: the entrance to work organizations is crucial
Increasing work demandsOver the years work organizations have become more and more demanding:- increasing task complexity - longer and flexible working hours- flexible tasks (job rotation)- more individual responsibility (task autonomy) - higher social skills (group work, team work) - higher social skills (service work)and: - intensification of low skilled jobs (workpace)
Work organizations are exclusive Today’s work organizations are exclusively designed for people: - without disabilities - with the right qualifications for existing jobs
Supply orientation predominant Policy and administration are still primarily client centered: focussing at job seekersSo are professionals: assessment, consult, guidance, coaching ofindividual clients
Demand orientation is needed • Employer has become pivot in modern social security • Legislation, policy and administration need to focus more on promotion and facilitation of:inclusive work organizations • Willingness to incorporate people with disabilities • Ability to engage them in productive labour: adding value to the organization
Job analyses Proces analysis Method Inclusive Work Redesign
Inclusive Work Organizations- suitable work and working conditions- for people with special needs- example: young people with partial abilities working in a general hospital
Young people with disabilities Wajong: youth disability allowance (18 – 65 years)citizens not able to earn minimum wage without support, due to disabilities originated before age of 18 250.000 total number 100.000 partial able to work 40.000 employed physical problems: 10% higher education: 10%
Diagnoses (only those able to work:) Neurological disorders 5% Developmental disorders: 56% - 35% intellectual deficits - 5% ADHD - 10% Autistic spectrum disorders Psychological disorders: 30% Physical disorders: 9% ------ 100% NB. co-morbidity and multiple (social) problems
Young people with partial abilities - Social functioning : most of them have this problem - social functioning only: 1/3 - Social and independent functioning : 1/4 - Social, independent and cognitive functioning: 1/4
Young people with partial abilities Type of Jobs needed: “Elementary tasks”, matching their intellectual capacities, learning by doing: training on the job; structured working environment, additional guidance and supervision Type of Organization needed: “Inclusive work organization”, staff and management, able and willing to deal with communication deficits and low skills of these youngsters
Inclusive work analysis • description of work processes • division of work processes into tasks • division of tasks into activities • identification of elementary tasks, characteristics and relations • composing elementary task clusters: support jobs (entry jobs, assisting skilled workers and professionals)
