Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate Korea's employment policy for people with disabilities by utilizing situational feasibility evaluation of Fisher's multi-dimensional policy evaluation methods (1995, 2003). A number of related studies conducted so far have been focused only on quantitative research methods. In other words, balanced and comprehensive evaluation studies were insufficient. Therefore, this study attempted a balanced policy evaluation through a qualitative or phenomenological approach that complements the limitations of the existing empirical methodology. In this study, the sub-topics for evaluation were divided into employment delivery system, employment program, and institutional employment environment for people with disabilities. Improvement measures and policy implications for each topic were presented. In order to improve employment services and jobs for people with disabiliyies, it was suggested that there is a need to strengthen linkages and cooperation between institutions, eliminate blind spots in employment services, improve quality, expand customized employment services, strengthen programs, improve policy and institutional environments, and strengthen individual psychological and emotional support.

본 연구의 목적은 Fisher(1995, 2003)의 다차원적 정책평가방법 중 상황적 타당성 평가를 활용하여 우리나라의 장애인 고용·일자리 정책을 평가하고 그에 따른 정책적 함의를 도출하는 것이다. 우리나라에서 진행된 다수의 장애인 고용·일자리 정책평가 연구들이 계량적인 연구방법에 치우쳐 균형 있고 종합적인 평가에는 소홀한 측면이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 실증주의적 방법론의 한계를 보완하는 질적 또는 현상학적 접근을 통해 균형 있는 정책평가를 시도하였다. 연구결과, 장애인 고용서비스·일자리의 개선을 위해 기관 간 연계·협력 강화, 고용서비스 사각지대 해소, 질적 개선, 맞춤형 고용서비스 확대, 프로그램 내실화, 정책·제도적 환경개선, 개인 심리정서적 지원강화가 향후 우리나라 장애인고용정책에서 중요한 것으로 나타났다.
