Rachel Le Marois

Rachel Le Marois est doctorante en sociologie à Sciences Po-CRIS, et doctorante en management à emlyon Business school-OCE, France. S'intéressant aux handicaps invisibles sur le lieu de travail, ses recherches se situent à l'intersection des ressources humaines, des études sur le handicap et de la sociologie critique de l'inégalité au travail. En utilisant des méthodes qualitatives, elle mène une recherche sur les politiques gouvernementales et organisationnelles, les facteurs organisationnels et les comportements des référents handicap en entreprise pour comprendre leur impact sur la divulgation du handicap au travail. Pour ce projet, elle est supervisée par Mar Pérez et Lisa Buchter à emlyon et Anne Revillard à Sciences Po. La date de soutenance de sa thèse est estimée à juin 2026.
