摘要

在美国,工人赔偿法因州而异,包括医疗费用在内的雇员福利主要由雇主承担。由于医疗费用增加以及因职业或非职业伤病缺勤,残疾管理的做法不断发展。残疾管理的目的是减少员工缺勤的事件,无论是由于疾病,受伤,或其他原因。在DM领域,对历史和新出现的证据的有意义的分析明显缺乏。作为一种更综合的残疾管理方法,每个利益相关者都寻求理论理解和基于证据的实践,以构建实践的演变并记录一致的ROI指标。理论基础,残疾和缺勤管理的历史演变,以及该领域出现的具体循证趋势构成了这些标准的基础。本研究是一种工作场所方法,开始定义实践标准,以整合残疾管理、健康和保健以及缺勤管理。本研究的目的是收集数据,以了解雇主如何看待他们自己对DM中确定的主要实践领域的认识、重要性和准备感觉。这些数据将通过电子调查获得,使用评级量表和在线问卷,其中包括描述性和事后设计成分。这些调查项目是由这些作者与其他在残疾管理领域知名的同事合作开发的。描述性统计将根据在线问卷的人口统计部分计算雇主参与者的特征。本研究感兴趣的人群是已经部署或有兴趣在其工作场所开发残疾管理项目的国家或国际雇主。这些雇主的雇员/合作伙伴的具体类型包括:职业卫生从业人员、部门主管和主管、人力资源人员和风险管理/安全人员。本研究的结果将有助于确定雇主对公认的糖尿病实践领域的看法,确定雇主潜在的培训需求,并有助于制定工作场所残疾、健康/保健、缺勤管理和糖尿病教育标准的实践方法标准。此外,雇主将能够确定他们在残疾管理模式的连续体中的位置,该模式已发展为整合健康和保健、缺勤管理和生产力管理的实践。成熟基准将使雇主处于持续改进模式,以便在一个更健康的社区中拥有更健康的工作人员。信息也将有利于文献,并在残疾管理领域的学生和从业人员的能力发展。

Identifying employer perceptions of recognised DM practice domains
In the United States, workers’ compensation law is state-specific, and employee benefits including health care costs are born primarily by the employer. In response to cost increases in medical treatment and absences due to illnesses and injuries occupational or non-occupational, the practice of Disability Management (DM) has continued to evolve. The purpose of Disability Management is to reduce the incidents of employee absences, whether due to illness, injury, or other causes. There is a distinct paucity of meaningful analyses of the history and emerging evidences in the DM field. As a more integrated approach to disability management, both a theoretical understanding and an evidence-based practice is sought by each stakeholder in order to structure the evolution of practice and to document consistent ROI metrics. Theoretical underpinnings, historical evolution of disability and absence management, and specific evidence-based trends emerging in the field form the foundation of these standards. This study is a workplace approach that begins to define standards of practice to integrate disability management, health and wellness, and absence management. The purpose of this study is to collect data to comprehend how employers perceive their own awareness, importance, and feelings of preparedness pertaining to the primary practice domains identified in DM. This data will be obtained through an electronic survey using rating scales with an online questionnaire which will include descriptive and ex post facto design components. The survey items were developed by these authors in collaboration with other colleagues known in the field of Disability Management. Descriptive statistics will be computed for the employer participants characteristics based upon the demographic portion of the online questionnaire. The population of interest in this study is national or international employer(s) that have deployed or interested to develop Disability Management program(s) at their worksite(s). The specific type of employees/partners with these employers include: Occupational Health Practitioners, Department Heads and Supervisors, Human Resources personnel and Risk Management/Safety Personnel. The findings from this study will help identify employer perceptions of recognized DM practice domains, identify potential training needs of employers, and assist in developing standards of practice approach to workplace disability, health/wellness, and absence management, and DM educational standards. In addition, employers will be able identify their position on the continuum of the model disability management that evolves to engage practices integrating health and wellness, absence management, and productivity management. Maturation benchmarks will place the employer in a continuous improvement mode towards a workplace with a healthier workforce in a healthier community. Information will also be beneficial to the literature, and capacity development of students and practitioners in the field of Disability Management.
