    While organizations struggle to find talent to be sustainable, persons with disabilities (PWD) struggle to enter and remain in the labor market. This study aims to explore the discrepancy between businesses’ readiness to incorporate PWD and the actual integration of this population. By employing a literature review and econometric analysis, including generalized linear models, this study examines the impact of Mexican standards and other factors on the inclusion of PWD in firms. The findings are grounded in the social model of disability, which proposes six hypotheses related to overcoming organizational barriers that result in a conceptual proposal of four key variables that could foster a more successful integration of PWD from recruitment to long-term employment, namely accessibility standards, assistive technology, compliance with Mexican standard frameworks, and the formulation and enforcement of human resources policies or programs. The conceptual framework also outlines the importance of considering and managing organizational ethics of care to prepare organizations for the inclusion of PWD. This study introduces the term “anapirophobia” to describe nonacceptance of disability. By identifying and addressing “anapirophobia,” it is possible to influence the workplace atmosphere for the inclusion of persons with disabilities. The results indicate that despite companies perceiving themselves as being prepared for the inclusion of PWD and compliant with regulations, this does not necessarily result in actual employment or support for the development of PWD. ©The authors ©The International Journal of Organizational Diversity ©Common Ground Research Networks.

    The Social Model of Disability opposes the analysis of disability from perspectives of specialists who analyze the phenomenon from outside, from positions of power, which place the target population as less valuable, unable to express their living conditions and to make decisions relevant about it. This work reports the life stories of a group of young people with disabilities, who at the time of the research were higher education students at a private uni-versity in Mexico City. Their stories allow us to observe recurrent patterns on the experien-ce of living with a disability, the recognition of being capable, intelligent, and autonomous young people. However, they also show evidence of the situations that they must overcome to eradicate society’s perception regarding uselessness and dependence.

    This work is the result of a doctoral research, which purpose is to know how resilience is built in families that live with a child with disabilities. The questions are: How is family resilience built around a child’s disability? What is the dynamic of the family’s system facing disability? What elements of resilience are observed in families that experience disability with a son of their own? The premise of the study is that every family that has a child or sibling with a disability is capable of being resilient, so that the family can face adversity, identify their strengths and empower themselves based on their choices. To assess this claim, a qualitative methodology was applied with a study-case design and in depth interview with five families. Findings support the conclusion that resilience is a dynamic process that manifests itself in families during life.
