A Review of the Literature and Implications for People with Disabilities (E-Human Resources Literature Review)
Abstract
To accomplish this overview, an extensive review of the literature on information technology applications to the employment process was conducted. Three human resources related uses of the Internet are explored in this review of current literature: E-recruiting, E-benefits/HR, E-training. Each of these areas can have a significant impact on employees with disabilities, especially given the growth of business’ use of the Web. If E-recruiting is not accessible, it could prevent people from applying for or even finding open positions. E-training, if not accessible, could create a new barrier to the advancement of individuals who are unable to access online training to improve or update their skills. E-benefits, while likely to make enrollment and other activities easier for many employees, may become an obstacle for individuals with certain disabilities if not designed to be accessible. In addition, we examined the literature for any current discussion of access issues for applicants and employees with disabilities by business. In the remainder of this introduction, we also cover the World Wide Web and accessibility issues for people with disabilities, legislation relevant to Internet accessibility, and studies of Web accessibility.DA11_PDF2.pdf: 3702 downloads, before Oct. 1, 2020.DA11_TXT.txt: 5700 downloads, before Oct. 1, 2020.0-DA11_TXT.txt: 0 downloads, before Oct. 1, 2020.1-DA11_HTML1.htm: 0 downloads, before Oct. 1, 2020- article
