People with disabilities have low employment levels, and previous research suggests that employer discrimination is a contributing factor. Following prior field experiments on labor market discrimination, evidence is presented from a correspondence study that submitted applications in response to 12,032 advertised software developer (high-skill) and data-entry clerk (low-skill) positions. One-quarter of the cover letters disclosed that the applicant has a spinal cord injury, one-quarter disclosed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), one-quarter disclosed a hearing impairment, and one-quarter did not mention disability. The evidence did not show gaps by disability status in employer interest in both occupations. It suggests a leveling effect that technology may have on job opportunities for people with disabilities in some professions. Complementary lab experiments attempted to shed light on the socio-cognitive processes underlying hiring behavior by simulating staffing sessions in a controlled setting of 241 participants. Overall, the evidence suggests that a signaling system depicting an inclusion policy may ease aversion toward applicants with disabilities.
