EMPLOYMENT OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES IN SWEDEN
Journal Title: Global Business & Economics Anthology - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The goal of Swedish labour market policy is to give the opportunity for earning their bread and butter to all persons in the society. Namely, the goal of Swedish employment policy is full employment. Persons with disabilities are obviously included in this “all persons”. In other words, the aim of the Swedish labour market programmes for the disabled is to provide persons with disabilities a greater chance of participating in society. In Sweden, there is no employment quota system for person with disabilities. However, the employment rate of person with disabilities in Sweden is higher than the employment rate of disabled people in OECD countries where employment quota systems for the disabled are introduced. The purpose of the paper is to investigate why the Swedish employment rate of person with disabilities is not low without employment quota systems for the disabled.
