| Abstract: | This study examines the impact of disability on labour market outcomes by gender since the Disability Discrimination Act using UK LFS data. Substantial differences in employment incidence and earnings continue to exist, especially for those with mental health problems. Distinguishing between work-limiting and non-work-limiting disability, the unobserved productivity effect of disability can be separated from discrimination. Limited evidence of wage discrimination against the disabled exists, but the "penalty" for working-limiting disability, while falling for men, has increased for women. |
