| description | In Search of Effective Disability Policy examines the potentials of two very different strategies of integrating disabled people into the working life. In the Netherlands employers have great responsi-bility for the integration. In contrast employers have limited responsibility in the Danish strategy, where public authorities are crucial. This book finds that there are virtues and drawbacks of both strategies. While the Dutch policy promotes work-retention of sick-listed workers, it hampers the labour market entry of non-employed disabled people. This is so because employers avoid hiring disabled people as future work-disability inflicts costs upon employers. This is not the case in Denmark. But here too many workers with health problems lose their labour market attachment because employers are allowed to dismiss them and as public reintegration measures do not work as intended. Consequently, an effective disability policy should demand neither too little nor too much of employers. By combing macro-level analyses with empirical analyses at the micro-level this book distinguishes itself from most other studies in the field. |

In deze vergelijkende studie worden de resultaten van twee zeer uiteenlopende strategieën voor de integratie van arbeidsongeschikten in het bedrijfsleven vergeleken. In Nederland dragen de werkgevers grote verantwoordelijkheid voor de herintreding, terwijl in Denemarken de overheidsinstanties een cruciale rol spelen. In Search of Effective Disability Policy laat zien dat beide oplossingen voor- en nadelen met zich meebrengen. Het Nederlandse systeem bevordert het behoud van de arbeidsplaats van zieke werknemers, maar toetreding van werkloze WAO'ers tot de arbeidsmarkt wordt belemmerd: werkgevers zijn immers niet meer bereid om arbeidsongeschikten in dienst te nemen vanwege de hoge kosten die zo'n werknemer met zich meebrengt. Dat komt in Denemarken niet voor, maar daar verliest een groot aantal zieke werknemers de aansluiting met de arbeidsmarkt als gevolg van hun ontslag en een falende overheidsaanpak voor reïntegratie. In een succesvol WAO-beleid zouden overheid en werkgevers daarom een gedeelde verantwoordelijkheid moeten dragen. Door analyses op macroniveau te combineren met empirische analyses op microniveau onderscheidt In Search of Effective Disability Policy zich van andere studies over dit onderwerp. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2010-12-31 23:55:55 2019-12-10 14:46:32 2020-04-01T15:34:06Z 2003 book 340226 OCN: 437107000 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/35120 9789053566442 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/35320 eng Changing Welfare States open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35120/1/340226.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35120/1/340226.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35120/1/340226.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35120/1/340226.pdf Amsterdam University Press 10.5117/9789053566442 10.5117/9789053566442 de2ecbe7-1037-4e96-8c3a-5a842d921e04 9789053566442 208 open access |
