Paperback. Higher Education presents significant challenges for disabled faculty. This book highlights the structural barriers that create challenges for faculty and demonstrates ways in which we can improve on current practice. Staff face a competitive environment which is increasingly characterised by long working hours and the use of standardised metrics to monitor and evaluate performance. The author underlines this issue as well as covering a range of subjects including the stigma associated with disability, workplace discrimination, the decision to disclose a disability, and access to workplace accommodations. The book:Amplifies the voices and experiences of disabled facultyExamines the representation of disability and how this affects both disabled and non-disabled audiencesProvides a range of personal accounts of visible and invisible disabilities by those working in Higher EducationArgues for changes to current practice through advice, support and guidance for those impacted by disabilityFeatures a chapter which addresses the structural and operational issues that systematically disadvantage disabled academicsThe book aims to inform and advise those interested in disability within Higher Education. It is of relevance, not only to those who identify as disabled, but also to senior management, policy makers and students of disability studies or education.
