This report looks at employment of those with limiting long-term illness or disabilities, as self-reported in the 2001 Census, to identify drivers and quantify their impact on the likelihood of obtaining employment or staying in employment by 2011. A second strand of this study assessed the difference in employment rate between those with and without long-term health problems or disabilities in 2011 (disability employment gap).
