A Model of Successful Work Experience for Employees who are Visually Impaired: The Results of a Study

Abstract

This study explored the factors that contribute to a successful work experience for employees who are visually impaired from the perspective of employers. The employers who were interviewed emphasized the dual responsibility that employees have to empower their own success and that employers have to enable the employees’ success. In addition, an integrative model of successful employment was developed from the interviews with the employers.
