Only 6% of working age adults with an intellectual disability (ID) are in any form of paid employment (Dempsey & Ford, 2009). The benefits of work and work like activity can be associated with structuring time and providing social contact (Jhonda, 1981). However for people with an ID who are relatively powerless and excluded from mainstream society (Lin et al, 2012; Ewing, 2008; Owens, 2015), work can also bring an opportunity to actively reduce stigma, harassment and discrimination (Maguire, 2009).The Department of Health published the 'Valuing Employment Now' (VEN) paper (2009) proposing to 'radically' increase the number of people with an ID in the open labour market. Whilst the policy establishes fair treatment and a rights based approach to citizenship (Williams, 2013) this research will investigate entrenched attitudes and practices. Lin et al (2012) suggests current systems are inadequate in preparing younger people with an ID for competitive work roles. My research will build upon this knowledge with specific research questions of:1) How is policy interpreted at root level by institutions and individuals and how is this constructed and interpreted to young people with an ID? 2) Who is involved in key decisions regarding the future pathways of young people and what language is portrayed when interaction and communication takes place regarding future pathway choice? 3) Is there scope and opportunity to strengthen the policy?

在有智力残疾(ID)的工作年龄成年人中，只有6%从事任何形式的有偿工作(Dempsey&Ford，2009)。工作和类似工作的活动的好处可以与安排时间和提供社交联系联系在一起(Jhonda，1981)。然而，对于拥有身份证的人来说，他们相对无能为力，被排除在主流社会之外(Lin et al，2012；Ewing，2008；Owens，2015)，工作也可以带来机会，积极减少污名、骚扰和歧视(Maguire，2009)。卫生部发表了“立即评估就业”(VEN)论文(2009年)，提议在公开劳动力市场“从根本上”增加拥有身份证的人数。虽然该政策确立了公平待遇和基于权利的公民身份方法(Williams，2013)，但这项研究将调查根深蒂固的态度和做法。Lin等人(2012)表示，目前的制度不足以让拥有身份证的年轻人为竞争激烈的工作岗位做好准备。我的研究将以以下具体研究问题为基础：1)机构和个人如何在根本层面上解释政策，以及如何向拥有身份证的年轻人解释这一点？2)谁参与了关于年轻人未来道路的关键决策，当就未来路径选择进行互动和沟通时，描述了什么语言？3)是否存在加强政策的范围和机会？
