Employment rates for autistic individuals are poor, even compared to those from other disability groups. Internationally, there remains limited understanding of the factors influencing employment across the stages of preparing for, gaining, and maintaining employment. This is the third in a series of studies conducted as part of an International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) policy brief intended to improve employment outcomes for autistic individuals. A multi‐informant international survey with five key stakeholder groups, including autistic individuals, their families, employers, service providers, and researchers, was undertaken in Australia, Sweden, and the United States to understand the facilitators and barriers to employment for autistic adults. A total of 687 individuals participated, including autistic individuals (n = 246), family members (n = 233), employers (n = 35), clinicians/service providers (n = 123), and researchers (n = 50). Perceptions of the facilitators and barriers to employment differed significantly across both key stakeholder groups and countries, however, ensuring a good job match and focusing on strengths were identified by all groups as important for success. Key barriers to employment included stigma, a lack of understanding of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and communication difficulties. Results suggest that a holistic approach to employment for autistic individuals is required, aimed at facilitating communication between key stakeholders, addressing attitudes and understanding of ASD in the workplace, using strength‐based approaches and providing early work experience.

关于自闭症成年人就业促进和障碍的多角度国际观点。

自闭症患者的就业率很低,即使与其他残疾群体相比也是如此。在国际上,在准备,获得和维持就业的各个阶段,对影响就业的因素的了解仍然有限。这是作为国际自闭症研究协会(INSAR)政策摘要一部分进行的一系列研究中的第三项研究,旨在改善自闭症患者的就业成果。在澳大利亚,瑞典和美国对包括自闭症患者,其家庭,雇主,服务提供者和研究人员在内的五个主要利益相关者群体进行了多信息国际调查,以了解自闭症成年人的促进因素和就业障碍。共有687人参加,其中包括自闭症患者(n = 246),家庭成员(n = 233),雇主(n = 35),临床医生/服务提供者(n = 123)和研究人员(n= 50)。在主要利益相关者群体和国家中,促进者的看法和就业障碍均存在显着差异,但是,所有群体都认为确保良好的工作匹配和专注于优势对成功至关重要。就业的主要障碍包括污名,对自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的缺乏理解和沟通困难。结果表明,需要一种针对自闭症患者的整体就业方法,目的是促进主要利益相关者之间的沟通,解决态度和对工作场所中ASD的理解,使用基于力量的方法并提供早期工作经验。自闭症水库2020年,13:1195年至1214年。©2020国际自闭症研究协会,Wiley Periodicals,Inc.。
