Guidelines for Employment and Transition to Work for People with Disabilities in Thailand

Although Thailand has experienced rapid economic growth, the hiring and continued employment of people with disabilities has become a serious social issue. This research project was carried out to understand the process of transitioning to work for people with disabilities in Thailand. A survey was conducted of 423 employed people with disabilities, and six focus group discussions were held as well. Employed and unemployed people with disabilities, caregivers, employers, and representatives of disability-related organizations participated in the discussions and shared their job-hunting experiences, workplace issues, and opinions regarding retention strategies.
