Abstract

This study analyzed the differences in the quality of life and workplace satisfaction of disabled workers according to the experience of COVID-19 infection in the 7th wave of the 2nd wave of the panel survey on the employment of persons with disabilities. As a result of the analysis, The job satisfaction of disabled workers who had experience with COVID-19 infection was mainly determined by job content and personal development potential. Statistically significant positive influencing factors were found in communication, human relations, consideration and convenience. In the analysis of differences in the quality of life of workers with disabilities depending on whether or not they were infected with COVID-19, “academic and self-development activities” were the activities of workers with disabilities who had infection experience.
In the case of hobby activities (outside the home), disabled workers without infection experience showed an increase in activity compared to the group of workers with infection experience. In the quality difference analysis, only the level of safety from the risk of corona infection was higher for regular workers than non-regular workers with disabilities, indicating that non-regular workers with disabilities were exposed to a higher risk. This research will help governments and policy makers understand the challenges and concerns experienced by workers with disabilities during the pandemic. However, this could be an important indicator for providing the necessary support in a timely manner.
