For this, the previous literatures concerning the concept of assistive technology, present state of assistive technology service in Korea, utilization level of assistive technology devices in job situation, and concept of job accommodation were investigated and analysed and, at the same time, a questionnaire survey was actually conducted to identify the current utilization state of job adaptive devices and the needs of Korean people with disabilities toward the related services.
