People who are homeless experience many barriers that affect their ability to gain and sustain work. In this study, we investigate whether personal job coaching support contributes toward employment success.
The short- and long-term employment outcomes of 2,480 clients participating in a labor market program were analyzed.
Clients being supported by a job coach have significantly higher chances of gaining employment than those not being supported. This holds particularly true for the youngest age-group. Furthermore, results also indicate that job coaching improves clients' chances of successfully sustaining employment.
Personal approaches and individual coaching seem to be promising strategies in social work practice and specifically in return to work programs for people who have experienced homelessness.
无家可归者面临诸多阻碍,影响他们获得并维持工作的能力。在本研究中,我们调查个人职业指导支持是否有助于就业成功。
分析了参与劳动力市场项目的2480名客户的短期和长期就业结果。
得到职业指导师支持的客户比未得到支持的客户获得就业的机会显著更高。这在最年轻的年龄组中尤为如此。此外,结果还表明职业指导提高了客户成功维持就业的机会。
个人方法和个别指导似乎是社会工作实践中,特别是在帮助无家可归者重返工作岗位项目中的有前景的策略。
