Claire Le Roy Hatala studied Sociology at the Sorbonne (Paris V). Since completing her Masters, she chose to study the condition of the disabled. Under the guidance of Eric Plaisance (University Professor) she produced a study on the workplace perception of young deaf people in vocational school. She then went on to the Ecole Doctorale at the Institue d’Etudes Politiques in Paris (Science Po) in 2002 to do obtain an advanced degree in Human Resources under the guidance of Renaud Sainsaulieu. She completed an essay entitled « The process of legitimation of policy in favour of disabled employees in a large company (SNCF).
She became more particularly interested in Psychiatric Disability while completing a doctoral thesis at the Brigitte Frybourg Laboratory – Inclusion of the Disabled (CNAM), under the guidance of Professor Eliana Sampaïo. For three years she lead an in-depth research project in partnership with five large companies (Air France, EDF, IBM, SNCF and Total) in order to study the realities of psychiatric disabilities in the work place.
This thesis entitled “When Psychiatric Problems Become a Disability : the Employee and the Company Dealing with Ongoing Employment” was defended and won in March 2007 in the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, with a very honorable mention and the congratulations of the Jury.
Claire Le Roy Hatala is currently working in the Agence Entreprises & Handicap (Companies and Disability Agency). For this agency she co-ordinated a study entitled «Companies and Psychiatric Disability : The Relevant Practices”.
Presentation of the Agence Entreprises & Handicap
A club made up of directors of large French companies, founded in 2004 by Marie-Anne Montchamp, formed a think tank to consider the strategic opportunities of employment policies for the disabled, and attempted to equate these with the performance goals of companies.
The Agence Entreprises & Handicap conducts and pilots studies together with member companies and in this way fuels the debate that will contribute to the exchange of ideas, best practices and experience.
