Many people with disabilities fear they will lose essential benefits if they go to work. Indeed, programs such as Housing Rent Supplements, Disability Insurance, Medicare, Food Stamps, and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families have associated benefits that disappear or are significantly reduced when a beneficiary’s income or resources rise beyond thresholds that are difficult to predict.

In recent data released by the Social Security Administration (SSA), nearly 8.5 million working-age citizens receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and/or Social Security Disability Income (SSDI). Approximately 9% of 18–64-year-old SSI recipients receive earnings and 55% of those working make under $200 a month. Many unemployed people with disabilities desire to work but didn’t. Furthermore, recent research has shown that even people with the most severe disabilities can work when given appropriate support and accommodations, and when their motivation to work is not muted by fear.

Based on the Case study above please under the following questions:

1. Do many people with disabilities fear in the case study has anything to do with the managerial level and decision environments? If yes, please explain how. If no, please state why you think contributed the fear.
2. Consider yourself as a disable person, please employ different mode of decision making, to justify the decision of stay unemployed.
3. Consider yourself as government organisation, please employ different mode of decision making, to convenience people with disability to work. Note: You should address the flaws in human decision-making in this part of your answer.

Consider your answer to the previous questions, do you think you can apply the same method of persuasion to those people who use ‘Covid-19’ as excuse to stay on social benefit instead of back to the workforce. If you think you can, explain how? And what if any strategies need to be changed. If not, explain why it is different.
