Dear All, My name is Amit Jain and I am currently doing my postdoctoral (post PhD) research fellowship at The University of St.Gallen, Switzerland. As I am also working from home due to COVID 19 pandemic and being visually impaired myself , I thought to do a small research study looking at impact of COVID 19 on visually impaired employees working from home.
A lot of research and policy work is going on the effect of this sudden change on the work style for all including persons with disabilities. Some steps are also being taken by Govt. and organizations in making the things better. But my belief is that these changes will have a lasting impact on how lives of visually impaired will be at workplace post pandemic. this can be positive as well as negative, depending on organization, industry , the role of the individual or many other factors. Thus one of my friend, Prof. Sudhanshu Shekhar (faculty at IIM Ranchi) and I are working on this small research project and need participation of people who are working from home. We want to have your views (through a telephonic interview) on how you see your work and workplace getting changed n*ow and in the future *(post pandemic). In case you are comfortable in having such a an interview, please let us know though a mail at [email protected] and I will get in touch with you about date and time convenient to you. (Thanks in advance) In case you are not willing to give interview but still want to share some thoughts (based on your own experience), you may also just share your views through message (email) either with me or Sudhanshu (copied on mail). Needless to say, the data will remain confidential and anonymous unless you are fine with disclosure of your name -- Regards Amit Jain ESKAS Postdoc Research Fellow CDI-HSG | University of St.Gallen +41712243194 (Work) +41775229473 (Mobile) www.linkedin.com/in/amit-jain-india https://cdi.unisg.ch/en Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe send a message to [email protected] with the subject unsubscribe.
