• Resumen

  • During the last years, policy makers have shown an increasing interest in social inclusion issues and reintegration policies for people with disabilities. However, disabled people are at a high risk of being unemployed. This paper is focused on labour market status of those individuals reporting �non-hampered in daily activities by a chronic or mental health problem, illness or disability�, using currently available data from large-scale representative surveys. In particular, we have used the information contained in the European Community Household Panel (ECHP).
