Designing an Inclusive Employer-Disability Interaction Mechanism in Post-Industrial Conditions

Abstract

Integrating individuals with disabilities into the post-industrial workforce remains a major challenge due to fragmented employment policies, limited workplace accessibility, and insufficient employer engagement. This study aims to design an inclusive employer-disability interaction mechanism that supports sustainable employment in post-industrial economies. Using a conceptual design approach based on literature review, strategic management theory, institutional analysis, and systems thinking, this study develops a structured framework for improving interaction between employers and individuals with disabilities. The proposed mechanism integrates legal compliance, economic incentives, workplace adaptation, corporate social responsibility, training and development, strategic partnerships, and long-term support. The conceptual analysis indicates that these components can strengthen employer participation, reduce institutional barriers, improve workplace accessibility, and support long-term career sustainability for individuals with disabilities. This framework offers practical guidance for policymakers, employers, and public institutions seeking to build inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable employment systems in post-industrial economies.
