Abstract
This research and statistical report has been commissioned by the Department of Social Services (DSS) to produce data to inform disability employment policy development.
The project has two broad aims:
•To explore the characteristics of working age people with disability, including identifying those cohorts who are potentially ‘job ready’; and
•To assess the potential benefits – to people with disability, and to the economy – of increasing employment rates amongst people with disability, with a particular focus on economic impacts.
