Four out of ten people with disabilities at work
“According to the Labour Force Survey (EAK), in 2015 there were more than 561,000 Flemish people between the ages of 20 and 64 who were hindered in their daily activities because of a disability, long-term illness or illness. Of these people, 43.1% were at work.
Despite a steady increase in their employment rate since 2011, the gap with regard to persons without disabilities (77%) remains very large.
