View Award Description

ARRT - Employment Across Evolving Work Programs - Georgia Tech proposes an Advanced Rehabilitation and Research Training Project (ARRT) – Employment across Evolving Work Paradigms to build capacity in employment research regarding individuals with disabilities. Traditional work performed onsite, workplace accommodations, and assistive technologies allowed access to practices and technologies that overcame physical and social barriers for individuals with disabilities. Initially contingent employment and the gig economy were thought to facilitate employment for people with disabilities. However, access to accommodations required under Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act became unavailable in these economies, creating different barriers to participation. Additionally, the global pandemic shifted the work paradigm, with businesses allowing telework, modified schedules, and work technology to be used in the home environment. As these “accommodations” became mainstream, employers recognized that telework could be applied much more broadly than before. Many travel-related and architectural barriers to employment were significantly reduced for people with mobility disabilities, while communications and video technology barriers were created for a those with sensory and communication limitations. The ARRT will train Occupational Therapy Doctoral degree holders as postdoctoral fellows capable of identifying and addressing barriers and facilitators present within a variety of employment paradigms and translating acquired knowledge in meaningful and useful ways to vocational rehabilitation counselors, rehabilitation engineers, therapists, and employers. The programmatic components developed using an instructional design framework include classroom and formal instruction, didactic training and research process, proposal development and grant writing, and independent research projects. The long-term outcomes will result in increased engagement of people with disabilities across all work paradigms to allow individuals with disabilities to fully realize the promise of the Rehabilitation Act.
