I am sending across a survey for my doctoral thesis that would take 15 min. I would like to request you and anyone else you can refer to respond to my study about the perceptions and understandings of employees or coworkers with disabilities. This survey is slightly detailed because there is hardly any research on this subject in India, and it is important to carry out an in depth examination of the subject before conclusions can be drawn. This is my first survey through 4+years of FPM and is more detailed than what an MBA project would involve. The purpose of this survey is to understand how one feels in interaction with disabled persons and to identify from policy perspective the factors that play a role in the employability of persons with disabilities across various industries. We are also trying to understand (1) the characteristics of persons with disabling conditions, that could act as barriers to their progress, (2) the concerns of and challenges faced by organizations if they have to hire someone with a disability, or when an employee might get disabled due to different reasons. The survey section is part of a larger study on the formulation and implementation of The National Policy for Persons with Disabilities in India. The study covers governance in this sector, health and rehabilitation for the disabled, their education and employment. Would be very grateful if you can respond to this survey at <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1enY-BquafFBxXkvZQKvpG9l1N481EgTezqMOR3TyAn 0/viewform> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1enY-BquafFBxXkvZQKvpG9l1N481EgTezqMOR3TyAn0 /viewform and forward this link to friends, online groups of your college, ex-colleagues, family, relatives (anyone who would respond) outside IIMC, for a wider cross section of respondent sample <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1bksrlhF9fBmoeTxVrXIY5QeLqmlE_RQ4u0Ap1wix0c A/viewform> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1bksrlhF9fBmoeTxVrXIY5QeLqmlE_RQ4u0Ap1wix0cA /viewform For clarifications, feedback, questions, and inputs that go beyond this survey, please email me at this id or <mailto:divvyab2...@email.iimcal.ac.in> divvyab2...@email.iimcal.ac.in I could also forward a copy of the questionnaire in Word format, if you would like to respond that way or circulate it.
