Abstract Date Presented Accepted for AOTA INSPIRE 2021 but unable to be presented due to online event limitations. For young adults and adults with autism, the outcomes related to independence, social relationships, employment status, and living arrangements have been poor.

Challenges and opportunities for independence as seen through photos and reflections on the OT role will be shared. Primary Author and Speaker: Paula J.

The increasingly complex relationship between educational qualifications and employment is an integral, yet little-explored dimension of the labour market developments that have come to be referred to as the ‘gig economy’. This article explores the changing meaning and relevance of education through an analysis of young people’s employment outcomes in terms of employment status, having a job in their field of study and job satisfaction. It shows that while higher levels of education do provide some protection from unemployment, the relationship is murky. A relatively large proportion of highly educated young adults are experiencing underemployment and precarious work. Young women are less engaged in the labour market. Furthermore, those with secure jobs do not necessarily find them meaningful and those with meaningful jobs are not necessarily in secure employment. For many young people, using their educational qualifications to find security in work is a bit like ‘chasing rainbows’.

The employment status and social adjustment of two groups of hearing-impaired young adults were compared with those of a group of normal hearing adults of comparable age. One of the hearing-impaired groups had graduated from units (special classes) in regular secondary schools. The rates of unemployment were similar for the hearing-impaired and normal hearing groups, but other intergroup differences in employment characteristics were apparent. In general, the social adjustment of the two groups of hearing-impaired groups was similar to that of the hearing group, although there were indications that the School for Deaf graduates had experienced more difficulty in coping following school graduation.
