  • Title: Work values of disabled beneficiaries.
    Author: Greenblum J, Bye B.
    Journal: Soc Secur Bull; 1987 Apr; 50(4):67-74. PubMed ID: 2955534.
    Abstract:
    Although disabled beneficiaries are not expected to work, do they continue to value work? This article compares data on a particular concept of work values, the importance to the self of having a job, for social security disability insurance beneficiaries, other disabled persons, and nondisabled persons interviewed in the Social Security Administration's 1978 Survey of Disability and Work. Descriptive comparisons of these three groups with similar demographic characteristics indicates that belief in the importance of a job does not decline after entitlement to disability insurance benefits. The findings support current efforts to promote re-employment through work-incentive and vocational rehabilitation policies.
