Abstract:

This study clarifies the forms of management and support available for people with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) from the perspective of organizational socialization through interviews conducted in satellite offices for the employment of disabled people in Japan. To achieve diversity and inclusion, the employment of disabled people is an important topic, and people with ADHD and ASD are expected to be active in the workforce. Therefore, satellite offices for the employment of disabled people have attracted attention in Japan in recent years. This study provides some implications. First, it expands the concept of realistic job preview as experience-based and reducing anxiety. Second, it defines a new concept, ‘work anchor’, which is a value that represents the underlying source of motivation and positive meaning in work. Third, it points out an assumption that organizational socialization is irreversible, and the possibility of the backlash of organizational socialization.
