Pages 245-254 | Published online: 10 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

The research examined factors relating to the attitudes of 120 Israeli corporate executives toward the employability of persons with intellectual disability. The study identified three key variables that are associated with favourable attitudes: previous contact, hiring a person with disability, and organisational size (large). Persons with mild intellectual disability were preferred for employment compared to those with moderate intellectual disability. The findings are interpreted with respect to policy and practice.
