Employer Perceptions of the Benefits and Concerns of Supported Employment.

Nietupski, John; And Others

Education and Training in Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, v31 n4 p310-23 Dec 1996

A study of 98 Iowa businesses found significantly more positive perceptions of supported employment by employers who had hired supported employees than those who had not. Large businesses were found to have more positive perceptions than small businesses. Extra training/supervision demands and lack of skills were cited as concerns. (Author/CR)
