Demand-side employment research can play an important role in advancing the knowledge base of occupational rehabilitation. Research contributes to theory building and provides the foundation for empirically supported interventions that can improve the return-to-work success of injured workers and/or the overall labor force participation rate of people with disabilities.
In this article, we present our rationale for developing this special section on demand-side factors related to employment of people with chronic illness and disability. We discuss the important relationship between employer practice factors and hiring and retention of people with chronic illness and disability. We highlight in this paper some of the exciting new findings reported in the articles contained in this special section as well as some recent demand-side employment and disability research.
We intend for this special section to stimulate thinking and discussion about Incorporating demand-side strategies in vocational rehabilitation and return-to-work interventions for people with disabilities and work injuries.
需求方就业研究可以在推进职业康复知识基础方面发挥重要作用。研究有助于理论建设，并为实证支持的干预措施提供基础，这些措施可以提高受伤工人的重返工作岗位成功率和/或残疾人士的整体劳动力参与率。
在本文中，我们提出了开发这个关于与慢性疾病和残疾人士就业相关的需求方因素的特别部分的基本原理。我们讨论了雇主实践因素与慢性疾病和残疾人士的招聘和留用之间的重要关系。本文重点介绍了本特别部分中包含的文章中报告的一些令人兴奋的新发现，以及最近的需求方就业和残疾研究。
我们希望本特别部分能够激发关于将需求方策略纳入残疾人和工作受伤人士的职业康复和重返工作岗位干预措施的思考和讨论。
