Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the job performance of severely disabled ann non-disabled employees as measured by personal characteristics, supervisory ratings, and employee job satisfaction. Subjects include twenty-one disabled and twenty-two non-disabled persons employed at an Internal Revenue Service Center. Results indicated no significant difference in personal characteristics and job performance for the disabled and non-disabled; however, in relation to job satisfaction, the disabled showed a significantly higher extrinsic and overall job satisfaction rating than the non-disabled. The implications are that when disabled employees are given the opportunity and needed job related support, they are able to function in the work environment as adequately as non-disabled employees.
