Abstract
This study is an empirical study on the effect of wellness factors on the quality of life and subjective happiness of disabled workers, and aims to contribute to living a healthy life by experiencing wellness in the real life. This study used raw data of the 8th employment panel survey for the disabled, and explored factors such as physical wellness, emotional wellness, social wellness, cognitive wellness, and occupational wellness through exploratory factor analysis. And the wellness factors have a significant effect on the quality of life and subjective happiness of the disabled workers. The results showed that the five wellness factors had a positive (+) effect on the quality of life and subjective happiness of the disabled. Also, the quality of life has a significant effect on subjective happiness. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the quality of life and subjective happiness were improved only when the wellness of the disabled workers was increased. In the future, it is necessary to develop a wellness program suitable for the type of disability and to develop indicators that can be applied to real life situations.
