“…More research on how to bridge the gap between the individual capacity of the employee with intellectual disability and the demands of the workplace could provide valuable information about how persons with intellectual disability can function optimally in their work environment. For this purpose, researchers may look towards international studies that seek to identify how support systems can collaborate with employees and employers to obtain a proper person-environment fit in the workplace, such as the work by Nevala et al, (2019), or Cheng et al, (2018). These studies, with their emphasis on effective rehabilitation interventions and effective support, may form a useful basis for Nordic researchers and practitioners to build on further.…”

“…We need strategies on both organisational and individual levels to facilitate employment for people with IDs. Employment services are important actors in increasing the employment rate for this group, and support and motivation in these agencies might increase the likelihood of employment (Rose et al 2005;Cheng et al 2018). Additionally, political guidelines and economic frameworks for public services should facilitate employment for people with IDs.…”

Background Workforce inclusion is an important political goal in many countries. However, nearly 70% of Norwegians registered with mild intellectual disabilities (IDs) are not registered employed or attending in day care centres. This study investigates the association between age, gender, functional level and hospital admissions with employment or attendance in public financed, community-based day care centres for adults with mild IDs in Norway. Method This study is based on data from a linkage of the national population-based registries from 2013 to 2015: Statistics Norway (SSB), the Norwegian Information System for the Nursing and Care Sector (IPLOS) and the Norwegian Patient Registry (NPR). The sample consisted of 2370 adults registered with a mild ID, receiving disability pension in Norway, aged 18-67 years. Binary and multinomial logistic analyses, adjusted for age, gender, functional level and hospital admissions, were performed. J.

Until now, reviews of the literature on supported employment have focused on measuring its effectiveness (Cheng et al, 2018;Frederick and VanderWeele, 2019) or the impact on people with certain types of disability (Cheng et al, 2018;Khayatzadeh-Mahani et al, 2019). Nevertheless, a general bibliometric analysis has not been shown, a deficiency that this study tries to compensate.…”

"Unlike other training models, supported employment promotes training and adjustment to the job in the workplace itself. Supported employment is considered one of the most appropriate strategies to promote labour inclusion in ordinary companies, especially in the case of people with intellectual disabilities. Likewise, it favours the supply of supports of varying degrees of intensity in a longitudinal manner, as well as the establishment of natural supports among other co-workers. The objective of this study was to examine the scientific production on supported employment of people with disabilities through a bibliometric analysis. The sample of 717 documents on this subject was obtained from the core collection of the Web of Science (WoS). Data analysis was performed using the bibliometric tools available at the WoS website. The results indicate a great interest on this subject in the last decades, being reflected in a great scientific production. However, this seems to have partially slowed down since the economic crisis of 2008. This being a preliminary study, it is advisable to continue with the bibliometric analysis of the data in order to achieve a better perspective of what has been published so far."
