This book explores the challenges and complexities of employing individuals facing disadvantages, particularly those from minority backgrounds and those living in poverty. The author delves into three primary approaches to studying employment of the disadvantaged: manpower economics, behavioral science, and program descriptive approaches. The manpower economics perspective focuses on the role of economic factors such as wages, demographics, and job characteristics in determining success in employment. The behavioral science approach examines the impact of personality traits, motivations, and social environments on job performance. Finally, the program descriptive approach offers insights into the processes and key factors that contribute to the effectiveness of employment programs. The book highlights the multifaceted nature of employing the disadvantaged, emphasizing the need for a holistic perspective that integrates the findings from each of these approaches. By considering individual characteristics, job factors, and social support systems, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in this critical area.
