The study analyzed the data from and samples used the 5th to 8th Survey on the Disability Employment Panel. The 313 workers who are in one job at all four time points from 5th to 8th survey. The conclusion of the study based on the above procedure is as follows.
First, the quality of employment, health status and life satisfaction of workers with disabilities showed no significant change with time. However, the variance of the rate of change was statistically significant and there were individual differences.
Second, as the initial level of quality of employment was higher, the initial level of health status was higher and the level of quality change rate of employment showed a statistically significant relationship with the rate of change of health status. In the relationship between employment quality and life satisfaction, there was a statistically significant relationship between the initial value of employment quality and the initial level of life satisfaction was found while, the initial value and the rate of change of employment did not affect the rate of change of life satisfaction.
In addition, the higher the initial health status, the higher the initial level of life satisfaction and the statistically significant relationship between the rate of change of health status and the rate of life satisfaction. In the mediating effect of the multivariate latent growth model, the direct effect of the change in quality of life on the rate of change in life satisfaction was not significant, but the indirect effect on the rate of change in life satisfaction through the rate of change in health status was significant. Based on the above results, this study discussed the policy direction to improve the quality of employment, health status, and life satisfaction of workers with disabilities.
