The Disability within the Northern Ireland Labour Market research report will inform ongoing development of a new Disability and Work Strategy for Northern Ireland, which seeks to set a long term commitment to reducing the disability employment gap. It also provides an evidence base to inform our policy making and strategic direction.
Findings are based on a desktop literature review of existing publications, statistics drawn from a number of existing sources, and extensive qualitative evidence gathering and analysis from the disability sector, employers and individuals with disabilities.
