摘要

本研究的主要目的在了解視覺障礙者的工作職類，研究方法採量的調查及質的訪談並行方式。共有373名視覺障礙者接受調查及50名企業界人士、重建機構、視障團體代表及就業輔導員、啟明學校教師、傑出視覺障礙人士及其家人、及專家學者接受訪談。研究結果顯示，目前國內視覺障礙者的工作類別計有57類，其中弱視者的職類有57類，全盲者則有24類。教育程度越高者，其工作職類也較具專業性；教育程度越低者，則較偏向操作性或勞力性質的職類。在發展視覺障礙者的工作職類必須注意到視覺障礙者的意願、個別差異問題、該職類的就業機會、工作安全性、職務再設計、及科技輔具的開發與配合。另研究結果也分別呈現弱視及全盲視覺障礙者的工作職類，並提出具體建議。
