Abstract:
Zusammenfassung Werkstätten für Menschen mit Behinderungen (WfbM) sind im Zuge der Reformen durch die UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention (UN-BRK) und das Bundesteilhabegesetz (BTHG) zunehmend dazu aufgefordert, den Übergang ihrer Beschäftigten in Arbeitsverhältnisse auf dem allgemeinen Arbeitsmarkt zu fördern. Viele Werkstätten in Deutschland kooperieren bei dieser Aufgabe mit ­Integrationsfachdiensten (IFD). Dieser Artikel stellt die Ergebnisse einer qualitativen Studie zur Zusammenarbeit zwischen WfbM und IFD bei der Übergangsgestaltung dar. Durch Expert*inneninterviews mit Mitarbeitenden aus beiden Einrichtungen konnten der prototypische Übergangsprozess dargestellt und Einflussfaktoren herausgearbeitet werden. Dabei wurde ein Zusammenwirken von Faktoren aus drei Einflussbereichen identifiziert: Zum einen wirken sich Aspekte der Organisationsstruktur, wie beispielsweise Zielkonflikte und Kommunikationsstrukturen auf die Übergangsgestaltung aus. Zweitens haben die Interaktionen zwischen den verschiedenen Beteiligten und die Beziehungsgestaltung zu den Beschäftigten einen Einfluss. Drittens konnten Einflussfaktoren in der Organisationsumwelt identifiziert werden, beispielsweise sozialpolitische und gesetzgeberische Förderbedingungen und die Einstellungsbereitschaft von Arbeitgebern. Abstract: Transitions from Sheltered Workshops to the Open Labour Market Since the reforms of the UN-CRPD and the ‘Bundesteilhabegesetz’ demand the establishment of an inclusive labour market, sheltered workshops for people with disabilities in Germany are increasingly confronted with the request to actively support their employees’ transitions to the open labour market. To fulfill this requirement, many sheltered workshops cooperate with integrational services, which are specialized in creating regular employment for people with disabilities. This article presents the findings of a qualitative study on the subject of cooperation between sheltered workshops and integrational services in order to promote their employees’ transitions to the open labour market. Through expert interviews with professionals of both institutions, the prototypical transition process was reconstructed. Additionally, three interacting areas of influence were identified: Firstly, aspects of the organizational structure influence transition processes, e. g. conflicting aims or communication structures. Secondly, interactions between the involved persons and the relationship between clients and professionals have an impact. Environmental factors, like sociopolitical and legislative conditions and the willingness of employers to employ former workshop employees could be identified as a third influencing area.

Abstract:
Evidence about the benefits and costs of supported and transitional employment for persons with severe disabilities is presented along with relevant caveats in the absence of controlled studies. Some of the major forms of supported and transitional employment services are compared with adult day care and traditional sheltered workshops, including work activity centers. Despite weaknesses in the data, sufficient information exists to argue that all forms of employment—supported, transitional, and sheltered—are more productive in terms of earnings and less costly to provide than adult day care. The lack of definitive data is seen as a major impediment to the expansion of supported and transitional employment options for people with severe disabilities; hence, stricter accountability is recommended. All service providers, regardless of the vintage of their programs, should be required to show benefits and costs within a uniform framework of measurement.

Abstract:
People with disabilities belong to a social group at risk of poverty. In their daily lives, they face prejudice and obstacles in the labor market. The purpose of this paper is to analyze and assess the labor market situation of people with disabilities which, according to data analysis, is much more difficult than that of persons without disabilities. In 2010–2016, the activity rate of disabled people was, on average, by 39 percentage points lower compared to the total population. The disadvantageous situation of disabled people is impacted by frequent amendments to legal regulations. Over recent years, the changes in the area of subsidized employment have contributed to an increase in employment of disabled people in the open labor market, accompanied by a decrease in employment figures in sheltered workshops.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Work holds great meaning and benefits beyond just monetary gain for people with intellectual disabilities. It gives these individuals the opportunity to engage in meaningful occupation. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to explore challenges that people with intellectual disabilities (PWID) experience when adapting to their worker roles in the open labor market. METHODS: The study used grounded theory as the research design. Five male participants and two key informants participated in the study. Two semi structured interviews were conducted with each one of the seven participants (five PWID and two key informants). RESULTS: Three core concepts emerged: 1) Unforeseen challenges of change; 2) A well-planned work preparation program enables success and 3) Crossing the bridge into the workplace: “Do I belong here?” CONCLUSIONS: This indicated that with sufficient external support, PWID are able to gain a sense of social belonging and develop the necessary skills to cope with challenges that arise in the workplace when PWID transition from protective/sheltered workshops to the open labor market. The findings of the study also indicated that work preparation programs and supportive employment approaches helped PWID transition to the open labor market.

Abstract:
Purpose People with disabilities (PWD) produce aids using 3D printing in an inclusive MakerSpace in Germany. This study aims to demonstrate the pathways enabling people with disabilities to be “makers” of aids, creating a “medium-quality market”. Design/methodology/approach This study conceptualizes the foundation of the MakerSpace as a social innovation and traces supporting and hindering factors on three different layers: normative, structural and functional contexts. Findings 3D printing can empower PWD to design and construct aids by themselves. The emerging “medium-quality” market offers potentials for availability for individualized aids. The design-thinking method used and the developed scalable approach empower PWD to create aids that best meet their own needs. The study found three arguments for printing aids that involve 3D printers: “New”: objects that are not available without a 3D printer. “Better”: objects that are available through established channels but were produced either more cheaply, quickly or on a more individualized level. “More”: objects that are available through other channels, but where 3D printing allows more of them to be produced for more people. Research limitations/implications The qualitative study has limitations because of sample size and context dependency. Research has only been carried out in Germany. Future research should be conducted in other countries to generalize the results. Practical implications The article allows to understand the emergence of a new market for aids. It can steer producers (including PWD or sheltered workshops) in producing new aids and making them available to more people. Social implications Understanding the functioning of the “new market for aids” can boost the accessibility of aids. Empowering PWD to produce aids can support their independence, self-determination and self-esteem. Supporting PWD to become producers of aids can support them in becoming experts and boost the quality and availability of aids. Originality/value All data presented has been collected by the authors.

Abstract:
Federal legislation, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 504, and the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act, mandates that individuals with disabilities be integrated in all aspects of life from education to employment to independent living. A recent development involves a settlement reached between the United States and the State of Rhode Island/City of Providence regarding sheltered workshops. States must ensure the availability of a continuum of alternative settings that span from restrictive (e.g., sheltered workshops) to fully integrated, community-based, competitive employment. The use of sheltered workshops as categorical, permanent, segregated practice is discriminatory.

Abstract:
As the hospitality industry globally suffers persistent skills shortages, organisations are increasingly looking to non-traditional labour markets to fill vacancies. Indeed, hospitality has a long tradition of employing from society’s margins [1]. Research has shown hospitality firms are more likely than other industries to hire people experiencing disability [2]. Therefore, hospitality has the need, the tradition and the capacity to implement and support lasting change in the employment of disability youth. The Australian National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which is overhauling the sector and transforming the way persons experiencing disability access services, is modelled on research demonstrating the broader economic benefits of greater inclusive workforce participation [3]. The scheme is also consistent with the fact that employment is the key to exits from disadvantage for most people of working age [4]. Yet Australia ranks 21st out of 29 OECD nations in disability employment rates [5]. These poor rates of providing inclusive employment are often levelled at firms’ unwillingness to hire applicants with a disability [6]. In late 2016, a disability services provider (DSP) and a registered charity partnered in a mobile coffee cart social enterprise to create open employment pathways for a group of disability youth previously employed in the ‘sheltered workshop’ model. A 360-degree ethnography combining interview and observational methods [7] was designed to investigate the holistic experiences of the youth and to gain insights into the levers and barriers regarding open employment. The agency/structure dualism framed the study, as it is recognised that agency is in itself not sufficient when its expression is constrained by an individual’s social deficits and the legacies of their entrenched disadvantage [8]. In all, five ‘baristas’ experiencing disability (across 10 interviews), 11 co-workers/managers from the DSP and the charity, and 21 customers comprised the sample. Previous research has identified industry’s reticence to employ people with disability as a key barrier, despite ability and willingness to work [5]. This study, however, identified a complex range of structural factors inhibiting the agency of disability youth to self-determine towards open employment. These included a history of poor experiences in institutional settings (e.g. schooling and sporting), the safety and security of sheltered workshops, parental oversight and the staffing requirements of DSP social enterprises. Surprising individual-level factors were also manifest, including the inability to responsibly manage new- found workplace independence and an absence of extrinsic motivators to work – given that the disability youth enjoyed financial security regardless of earnings. This research challenges the conventional wisdom that organisations alone need to revisit their willingness, capacity and preparedness for providing accessible employment, and rather suggests that deep-seated structural factors, and their impacts on youth, require concomitant attention.

Abstract:
Social enterprise pursues both social and economic goals and is recognized as a formula for achieving sustainable development. Sheltered workshops (SWs) are a manifestation of this phenomenon, their main objective being the labor market integration of disabled people. In this paper, the efficiency of SWs has been studied taking into account the operational and the core social aspects, as well as their distinct nature, namely for-profit or non-profit status. Additionally, we have analyzed the relationship between the social efficiency and the economic returns of these entities. To do this, a semiparametric methodology, combining different data envelopment analysis (DEA) models with truncated regression estimation has been used. It is the non-profit and top-performing SWs that achieve the best social and economic efficiency. For-profit and low-performing SWs show further reductions in social efficiency as a result of the economic crisis and uncertainty in subsidy-related public policies. Their extensive social proactiveness and high economic strength in the crisis period positively influenced their social and economic efficiency. We have also proven that it is the most profitable SWs that have the greatest social efficiency. We consider that our results constitute a useful complement to other evaluation models for social enterprise.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: South African Protective Workshops struggle to transform to align to a developmental human rights approach and to increase sustainability in the absence of a uniform model and an implementation strategy. This study applied qualitative research methodology in the form of Action Research with Co-operative Inquiry to answer the research question of what could be a framework of best practice for and strategy of transformation for protective workshops (PWs) operated by the South African Federation for Mental Health (SAFMH) in South Africa. It included the development of a transformation strategy for 31 PWs for adults with intellectual disability operated by SAFMH member organisations across South Africa. Seven representatives from the managers and service users of PWs were selected trough convenient sampling. The participants formed a co-operative inquiry group to determine the nature of the service to be delivered and how it should be implemented. The purpose was to develop a framework for possible and relevant services for persons with intellectual disability. Such services should preferably be aligned to the human rights based legislation and funding requirements of the Department of Social Development as to increase the long-term sustainability of the PWs. Given that the study was funded by the SAFMH, the directors requested that the Co-operative Inquiry Group use the exisisting best practice model used by Cape Mental Health as a template and point of departure. The study was done over a 12-month period (February 2012 – February 2013) and included a research initiation meeting, four search conferences and a presentation of the findings to the SAFMH Directors. The study contributed new knowledge on the nature of service provision to persons with ID and the ideal process to transform services within the SAFMH context. Through inductive content analysis two themes emerged namely: 1) Comprehensive service provision and 2) Coordinated transformation of services. The first theme determined that comprehensive services to persons with ID should consist of inclusive, appropriate, enabling and empowering services. The second theme suggested a new way of coordinating the transformation of services through systematic implementation, suitable regulation, sufficient capacity and ensuring sustainability. A central management structure was suggested to ensure coordinated implementation, to secure funding and to monitor and evaluate the implementation. A mind-shift towards new thinking was identified as a prerequisite for stakeholders buy-in on transformed service delivery. This mind-shift relates to the status of the service users with ID as adults in training towards employment in the open labour market and maximum integration into society. This study contributed new knowledge that informs the development of a new service delivery framework of best practice. The proposed implementation strategy could offer persons with ID the opportunity to progress and develop towards their maximal level of integration into society. It further provided PWs with possibilities for conceptualising different models of practice in the form of an implementable framework and a strategy to transform services. The findings were presented to the SAFMH Directors who adopted the concept framework and implementaimplementation strategy in theory as a proposal for future transformation without amendments.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Suid-Afrikaanse Beskermde Werkswinkels vind dit moeilik om te transformeer na ‘n ontwikkelingsbenadering wat op menseregte gegrond is en om hul volhoubaarheid te verbeter in die afwesigheid van ‘n eenvorminge model en ‘n strategie vir implimentering. Hierdie studie het kwalitatiewe navorsingsmetodes in die vorm van Aksie Navorsing met Koöperatiewe Ondersoeke gebruik om ’n transformasie strategie vir die 31 Beskermde Werkswinkels vir volwassenes met intellektuele gestremdheid, wat bestuur word deur die lidorganisasies van die South African Federation for Mental Health (SAFMH) regoor Suid-Afrika. Die koöperatiewe ondersoekspan het bestaan uit verteenwoordigers van die werkswinkel bestuurders en gebruikers van die dienste wat geselekteer is deur middel van gerieflikheidsteekproefneming. Hulle ondervinding het meegewerk om vas te stel wat die aard van die dienste moet wees en hoe dit effektief geïmplementeer kon word. Die doel van die studie was om dienste daar te stel vir persone met intellektuele gestremdheid wat in lyn is met menseregte wetgewing en die riglyne vir befondsing deur die Departement van Maatskaplike Dienste om sodoende die langtermyn volhoubaarheid van die werkswinkels te verbeter. Omdat die studie deur SAFMH befonds is, het die direkteur die koöperatiewe ondersoekspan gevra om die Cape Mental Health model as ’n beginpunt te gebruik aangesien dit reeds as ’n beste praktyk model in die sektor erken word. Die studie is oor ’n periode van 12 maande uitgevoer (Februarie 2012 – Februarie 2013). Dit het ’n inisiasie vergadering, 4 ondersoek konferensies en ’n aanbieding van die bevindinge aan die SAFMH-direkteure ingesluit. Die eerste tema het nuwe insig gegee oor die aard van dienste aan persone met intellektuele gestremdheid en die ideale manier om dit te implementeer om te transformeer van huidige na beste praktyk status binne die SAFMH konteks. Deur induktiewe inhoud analise het twee temas na vore gekom vanuit die kodes, sub-kategorieë en kategorieë. Die eerste tema het gedui op omvattende dienste aan persone met intellektuele gestremdheid in die vorm van inklusiewe dienste, toepaslike dienste, dienste wat persone in staat stel en dienste wat hulle bemagtig. Die tweede tema het nuwe kennis opgelewer aangaande die gekoördineerde transformasie van dienste deur sistematiese implementering, toepaslike regulering, genoegsame kapasiteit en deur te verseker dat dit volhoubaar is op die lang duur. ’n Sentrale bestuursentrum is voorgestel om gekoördineerde implementering te verseker. ’n Nuwe denkwyse oor die status van volwassenes met intellektuele gestremdheid deur alle belanghebbendes is geïdentifiseer as ’n voorvereiste vir die aanvaarding en suksesvolle implementering van die transformasie strategie. Hierdie persone moet gesien word as volwassenes wat in opleiding is om in die ope arbeidsmark te werk en op die hoogste vlak van integrasie in hulle gemeenskappe te funksioneer. Die nuwe kennis het gelei tot die ontwikkeling van ’n nuwe diensleweringsraamwerk en implementeringstrategie wat persone met intellektuele gestremdheid die geleentheid kan gee om maksimaal te ontwikkel en te integreer in hulle gemeenskappe. Dit bied verder aan beskermde werkswinkels die geleentheid om alternatiewe modelle van dienslewering te oorweeg. Die bevindinge is aan die SAFMH-direkteure voorgelê en die raamwerk en strategie vir implementering is in teorie aanvaar sonder enige veranderinge.

This study is based on a comprehensive collection of relevant literature, and uses a sheltered workshop in Changhua County as a research case to organize information through secondary data collection and expert interviews, and analyzes the operation difficulties of the sheltered workshop, the performance evaluation of the employment transitions and the impact factors of the success of the transfer. This study will be helpful for increasing the operation performance of the sheltered workshops and providing suggestions for the employment transfer. The study finds that the confusion of sheltered workshops is the most heated discussion, because the unclear positioning will affect the expectations and decision-making behavior of the service providers, the service persons, and the supporters (family members) of the service persons for the sheltered workshops. Moreover, there are contradictions between the dual tasks of the sheltered workshops for wok-related training for people with disabilities and workplace operations. In particular, it is necessary to provide both non-profit services and self-financing services in the initial stage of establishment. This study suggests that the authority can provide more substantive counseling and awards to help them to establish a sustainable foundation. The success of employment transfer will be affected by subjective and objective factors and internal and external environment, in addition to the professional services of sheltered workshops. This study proposes some suggestions for the operation difficulties of sheltered workshops for reference in practical operations, policy formulation, administrative implementation, and future research.

The purpose of the research was to explore the impact of Disabilities Rights Protection Act on sheltered workshop employees before and after leaving sheltered employment. Research was conducted through qualitative method. Data collected, researcher’s notes and other related information were aggregated and analyzed using NVivo version 8 computer software. Results are as follows: 1. Before leaving current institution, sheltered workshop employees all experienced institution changes, moving from one to another. These institutions include: vocational training institutions offering government subsidies, fee charging day activities institutions, sheltered workshops operated by day activity institutions, and sheltered workshops with a variety of occupation options. 2. Parents began to think about the causes as their children left sheltered workshops. Their sought started from policy perspectives, but some of parents furthered their analysis to their children’s lack of ability and emotional stability. 3. No matter the reasons of departure, parents all felt surprised, saddened, suffered wrong, helpless, chaotic, nervous and overwhelmed. 4. When seeking long-term placement for their children who left sheltered workshops, parents had two main considerations, their children’s lack of ability and the inadequacies of external environments. Former consideration includes abilities in areas such as transportation, safety, and social mainstreaming. Latter consideration caused parents to seek institutions that were more accepting, costing less, offering government subsidies or providing part-time job offeres. 5. With great hope, parents sought institutions in which to place their children. However, some parents proactively sought out solutions, while others passively await resources. 6. Whether parents are proactive or passive, one thing they never gave up doing was “voicing” needs, including societal acceptance of their children, policies that support their children and availability of ideal sheltered workshops – holistic services that include no occupational assessment, providing transportation, government subsidies, part-time options and loving staff members.

Abstract:
This master thesis deals with the issues of adults with Down syndrome. Theoretical and practical part consists of basic facts about the syndrome, the field of education, living and working conditions. Secondary data analysis refers to both social and law perspective. The aim of the thesis was to monitor the living and working conditions of people with Down syndrome in the area of České Budějovice and Ostrava. In order to accomplish the objective the qualitative research was chosen considering the research sample. As a basis of the research the form of a semi-standard interview was chosen and as a supplementary was used a casuistic method and secondary data analysis oriented mainly on the area of employment. The results of the research imply that people with Down syndrome can work mainly at sheltered workshops because the organizations focused on employing people with handicap do not employ predominantly people with mental disability. People with Down syndrome work in the sheltered workshops according to the labour law. The master thesis can be used as a resource of information for organizations, which are engaged in employment of people with handicap and also with mental disability thus with Down syndrome.

Abstract:
As workers with a wide array of both acquired and congenital disabilities lost access to the paid labor market, legislators and reformers began to search for a way to return people with disabilities to productivity and self-support. Influenced by the Protestant work ethic and the long-standing association of dependency with poor citizenship, rehabilitators tended to focus more on restoring their clients’ putatively damaged morality than on determining how to integrate disabled people into the wage labor market. Nevertheless, vocational rehabilitation programs did offer some disabled people and their families modest incomes during times of considerable stress. Chapter 6 traces the emergence of Goodwill Industries and the ways in which its sheltered workshops replicated mainstream employers’ use of piecework and concerns with efficiency—dynamics that led managers to exclude many disabled workers as too inefficient. Due to the complexity of disability and the ways that it intersected with age, gender, and family status, few clients moved into the outside labor force.
