Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Persons with mild and moderate intellectual disability (MMID) face employment barriers. This scoping review will inform a framework for tailored employment support and accommodations in South Africa.

Area of Science:

  • Disability Studies
  • Employment Support Services
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Persons with mild and moderate intellectual disability (MMID) experience significant barriers to employment, hindering societal participation and potential realization.
  • Existing employment support frameworks in South Africa lack context-specific considerations for the unique needs of individuals with MMID.
  • There is a critical need for evidence-based strategies to guide interventions, policies, and national directives for successful employment transitions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review to identify and synthesize existing literature on employment support needs and accommodations for persons with MMID.
  • To inform the development of a contextually relevant framework for facilitating open labor market employment for individuals with MMID in South Africa.
  • To provide recommendations for policy and practice to improve employment outcomes for persons with MMID.
