Machine learning and the labor market
ML exposure is segmented according to occupational and worker sociodemographic characteristics and has the potential to widen inequities in the working population.

Sixty-eight participants from diverse employment sectors and with a range of personal experiences and circumstances (e.g., …

The Participation of People with Disabilities in the Workplace Across the Employment Cycle
Despite legislation on diversity in the workplace, people with disabilities still do not experience the same access to work opportunities as do their counterparts without disabilities. Many employers have been shown to harbor sincere yet ill-founded views about the work-related abilities of people with disabilities; these negative views are often a result of interrelated concerns that permeate the entire employment cycle. In this paper, we provid…

For those with a disability, being an older adult and/or a new worker can contribute to a greater likelihood of being employed precariously. Policies and programs can be recommended to address precarious working conditions and related health inequities for people with disabilities based on life and career phase
