For job retention, recruit accommodation, workplace access accommodation were not significant on the job retention. While, company regulation and job adjustment was statistically significant on the job retention. It is necessary to be provided with reasonable accommodations in the direction of increasing the employment and strengthening job retention of people with disabilities.

본 연구는 정당한 편의가 장애인의 취업 확률 및 직업유지에 영향이 있는 지를 밝히는 데 그 목적이 있다. 분석에는 장애인 고용차별 실태조사 자료가 이용되었다. 분석방법은 취업확률은 로지스틱 회귀분석, 직업유지는 다중 회귀분석 방법을 사용하였다. 분석결과, 취업 확률의 경우 채용 시험 이후 단계의 정당한 편의는 장애인의 취업 확률에 영향이 없는 것으로 나타나는 반면, 채용시험 이전 단계의 정당한 편의는 장애인의 취업 확률에 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 직업 유지 영향의 경우, 모집채용 편의, 사업장 접근성 편의는 고용유지에 영향이 없는 반면, 회사 방침 변경 및 직무조정은 직업유지에 긍정적인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과에 따라 장애인의 취업 가능성을 높이고 직업유지를 증가시키는 방향으로 정당한 편의를 제공할 필요가 있으며, 정책적으로는 정당한 편의에 대한 사업주 지원을 확대할 필요가 있다.
