Joint Transit Industry Training Project for Employment of the Handicapped. Case Studies: Trainer's Guide

摘要

The ten case studies in this report comprise one portion of a training program designed to assist managers in the public transportation industry in their efforts to hire and accomodate handicapped persons. They are intended to provide managers and supervisors with an increased awareness of the needs and concerns of the handicapped worker and provide a basis for discussion of constructive ways of addressing these concerns within the parameters of sound management practice. The case studies are illustrative of the types of problems that confront handicapped persons in securing jobs and the issues faced by personnel decision-makers and supervisors who may be dealing with handicapped employees in great numbers.
