Promoting Employment Opportunities for People with Disabilities: Quota Schemes (Vol. 2)
23 December 2019
Employment quotas represent one of the most frequently used policy measures to promote work opportunities for persons with disabilities.

While some countries have had employment quotas for many decades, others have introduced them recently, revised them or are planning to introduce them. There is no standard approach. Quotas vary from country to country in terms of the level of the percentage obligation, the size of company covered, whether they apply to public and private sector employers, how compliance is monitored and what measures apply in the case of non-compliance.
