include amongst others the current economic climate your work experience and previous employment your educational record where you live if in britain you are cscs card holder and if you can drive archaeology as a whole is generally a very well educated sector with many people having at least an undergraduate degree to their name if not a masters however it is often said that once you have entered the fray and became a paid archaeologist it is much easier to gain employment once again at the same or other archaeological units generalisations aside the past two and a half months have led me in a fruitless search to gain employment and i have recently signed onto job seekers allowance a financial safety net for those searching for work in the uk i was somewhat shocked and impressed that i was able to choose archaeology as a main option on my job seekers agreement form after hearing many horror stories from friends although i hold out hope for carving out a career in the archaeology heritage sector i realise that now is a particularly tough time i also realise that as a physically disabled person see previous posts picking archaeology as a career choice was never going to be a straightforward career progression or job choice but i m not one for easy rides as a recent guest post from charles hay pointed out a career in archaeology is not easy for anyone and you will have to find work in other sectors to help pay your way whilst you search for that dream archaeology job be open for anything don t be afraid to move and always apply even when you don t think you stand a chance whilst i may feel sorry for all the archaeological units that have received my cv in their email inbox s i do not for a moment regret not sending it as always there is hope many of my friends who i have studied with or have got to know at university have gained jobs in the archaeological sector there has been another recent round of institute for archaeologists heritage lottery funded training placements released 8 in all based in either scotland england or wales be fast though the closing date for some of the positions is the 19th of november a few days away whilst others are open until early december bajr the british archaeological jobs and resources site always presents new jobs as soon as they are available the ifa job sheet is also well worth signing up as is the daily checking of the university of leicester museums jobs desk and if worst comes to worst you can always volunteer if you have a day free and there is a local dig coming up why not join in and gain experience get to know some new people and have fun i have volunteered for quite a few units now both during my undergraduate degree and during my gap year i e surgery year and i ve managed to get to germany for free as a volunteer managing to work on an excellent site comments leave a comment categories amateur archaeologist bajr employment field archaeology free thinking heritage lottery fund ifa museum jobs desk unemployment volunteering institute for archaeologists employing people with disabilities report 13 01 11 5 mar here is the link describing a newly published ifa report on best practise guidelines for employing people with disabilities ifa employing people with disabilities good practise guidance for archaeologists by tim phillips john creighton http www archaeologists net news 110113 new professional practice paper employing people disabilities on my first archaeological dig romano british site i have read most of this report and it gives me great joy the comments on disability in the workplace were mostly positive and highlighted that if people talked a bit more openly about various disabilities then compromises can be reached the report covers areas such as the guidelines for good practise disability and professional archaeology alongside personal stories at the end one of the summary comments is that a lack of awareness and understanding was a major problem especially with hidden disabilities an environment in which it is okay to explain your disability discuss the options open and for compromises to be made where cited as critically important steps in the archaeological world to include those with disabilities enter the working world this report makes clear the different models that disability can take firstly there is the slightly dated view that disability is an illness a person with a disability is a subject purely for treatment and cure this is the medical model next is the charitable model this view sees the individual as a tragic individual an object of pity who needs care and to be protected from the everyday rigours of life so far these models hardly seem charitable to the disabled person themselves the final model and the one which sets the tone for the ifa report is the social model this model shifts the emphasis away from the view that there is something wrong with the person that they are excluded from social economic physical and attitudinal behaviours of society because of their disability this focuses instead on the need for society to change its attitude that reasonable adjustments can be made the report has provided a safeguard in the fact that although i m trying hard to break into archaeology i know that at least a good portion of interested disabled people already have succeeded i also came across this blog a small online community dealing with various issues of being disabled and available disability aids this post in particular caught my eye as it details finding work and disclosing a disability on your cv the fact that the writer mentions archaeology and heritage only helped to intensify my interest i ve also been turned down from many jobs from the archaeologists who never called me back to the museum curator who was happy for me to volunteer at his living history museum but wouldn t hire me because he was afraid i would fall in the well this was the large obvious well i walked past every day the well that was covered over with a steel grating but i m not bitter not at all i ve always taken the attitude that if an employer is that close minded when it comes to hiring a person with a disability then i wouldn t want to work for them anyway as a disabled person currently trying to find work it is a staggering number to read that the author notes up to 70 adults who identify themselves as disabled are not currently employed i m not sure how verifiable that number is but it makes me think for a moment the decision to make public the acknowledgement of having a disability can be a very personal one and no doubt turns many employees off as unfair as this it certainly isn t helped by the media at large who often portray equality laws as divisive barriers to ordinary people whoever ordinary people are it is my hope that reports such as the ifa one can help to increase knowledge about disability the many guises it can take and the determination disabled people often have this brings me to my main point disability acceptance into the workforce and into society at large is not a one way process we can be a part of that change as much as anyone else we should not leave it up to others when we can have a positive say and help change society for the better equally it is also up to other sectors of society to embrace the disabled community access for
