In recent years, the issue of integrating and retaining people with disabilities in the workforce has undergone a transformation, in terms of both approaches and resources. Against a backdrop of labor shortages, the job-seeking population with disabilities appears to be a population pool that the Quebec government can capitalize on.
The Comité consultatif Personnes handicapées (CCPH) therefore commissioned a Cirris research team to produce a report on the employment situation of people with disabilities in Quebec. The aim of this document is to develop a lexicon of inclusive access and universal accessibility, as well as related terms. It also provides an update on legislation, programs and public measures concerning inclusive access and accommodation measures affecting employment in Quebec. Finally, it presents the main players and some of the issues involved.
The following ten infographics (in French) present key data from the report:
