  • Workers’ Perspectives on Workplace Disclosure of Serious Mental Illness and Their Employers’ Responses

    Open AccessRebecca M B White, Marjorie L Baldwin et al.ARTICLEQualitative Health Research2023

    Persons with serious mental illness are often reluctant to disclose their disability to an employer because of the intense stigma associated with their illness. Yet, disclosure may be desirable to gain access to employer-provided job accommodations, or to achieve other goals. In this article, we aimed to (1) describe the contexts in which workers in regular employment disclose a mental illness to their employer and (2) describe employer responses…

  • Effects of Provider Networks on Health Care Costs for Workers With Short-Term Injuries

    Marjorie L Baldwin, William G Johnson et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2002References: 9

    OBJECTIVES: This study examines the effects of preferred provider networks on health care costs and service utilization in the treatment of work-related injuries. RESEARCH DESIGN: A retrospective comparison of workers' compensation claims treated by network and non-network providers was conducted. Pairwise matches of individual cases are used to control for differences in case mix and severity of injury between network patients and a non-network …

  • The Effects of Worker Heterogeneity on Duration Dependence

    Ronald J Butler, Richard J Butler et al.ARTICLEThe Review of Economics and…2001

    We estimate models of workers compensation claim duration for a sample of Canadian workers with serious low-back injuries. The models extend recent duration research by allowing worker characteristics to affect duration dependence through the nonlocation parameters of the duration distribution. We compare results for modified Weibull models and piecewise-constant hazard rate models of duration dependence. The results show that workers' responses …

  • Gender Differences in Social Security Disability Decisions

    Open AccessMarjorie L BaldwinARTICLEJournal of Disability Policy…1997Cited by: 3References: 1

    This study analyzes gender differences in Social Security disability awards. Logit analysis is used to identify significant determinants of receiving a Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) award. The results show that, even after controlling for applicant characteristics and nature of impairment, women receive Social Security disability awards at a significantly lower rate than do men. An analysis of t…

  • Can the ADA Achieve its Employment Goals

    Open AccessMarjorie L BaldwinARTICLEThe Annals of the American…1997Cited by: 5References: 4

    One of the main objectives of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is to increase the relative wages and employment rates of persons with disabilities by eliminating employer discrimination. The act implicitly assumes that employer discrimination is the main cause of disabled persons' disadvantages in the labor market, ignoring important differences between this minority group and the groups protected by civil rights legislation in the past.…

  • The Employment Effects of Wage Discrimination against Black Men

    Open AccessMarjorie L Baldwin, William G JohnsonARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…1996Cited by: 2References: 21

    When labor supply curves are upward-sloping, wage discrimination against black men reduces not only their relative wages, but also their relative employment rates. Using data from the 1984 Survey of Income and Program Participation, the authors estimate wage discrimination against black men and, for the first time, quantify the effects of that discrimination on the employment of black and white men. They find that 62% of the difference in offer w…

  • Managing Work Disability

    Open AccessRichard J Butler, William G Johnson et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…1995References: 11

    Studies of the effectiveness of medical and vocational rehabilitation and the disincentive effects of workers' compensation benefits frequently assume that a return to work signals the end of the limiting effects of injuries. This study is the first to test that assumption empirically. The authors use a rich data set on Ontario workers with permanent partial impairments resulting from injuries that occurred between 1974 and 1987 to show that the …

  • The Americans with Disabilities Act

    Open AccessWilliam G Johnson, Marjorie L Baldwin et al.ARTICLEPolicy Studies Journal1993Cited by: 12References: 9

    This article summarizes the research on labor market discrimination against persons with disabilities and discusses the implications of that research for the probable success of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The research shows that discrimination reduces the wages of men and women with disabilities relative to nondisabied men and women. The size of discriminatory wage differentials varies with the intensity of prejudice toward partic…

  • Evidence on the Occupational Segregation of Women With Disabilities

    Open AccessMarjorie L Baldwin, Marjorie BaldwinARTICLEJournal of Disability Policy…1991Cited by: 1

    Differences in the occupational segregation of disabled and nondisabled women were investigated. A logit model of occupational choice was estimated with data from the 1984 panel of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP). The dependent variable in the model equaled 1 if the woman was employed in a predominantly male occupation. Independent variables in the model controlled for workers' labor force attachment, health status, and for …
