Abstract:
Using unique questions introduced into the 20XX British Workplace Employment Relations Study, a detailed matched employee–employer survey, this article compares disabled and non-disabled employees’ experience of the 20XX–20XX recession to contribute a cyclical perspective on disability-related disadvantage at work. We find that disabled employees are more likely to report recession-induced changes to workload, work organization, wages and access to training, even after controlling for personal, job and workplace characteristics. There is limited evidence that workplace equality characteristics moderate these relationships to protect disabled employees. These findings have particular resonance in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
