Abstract

Abstract This paper reviews how different policies jointly affect employment among disabled individuals. I used Google Scholar to find literature on welfare systems, disability, health and employment. I found literature on flexicurity through snowballing. I evaluate the following hypotheses: (1) generous disability benefits constitute a disincentive to work; (2) high investments in activation policies have a positive effect on employment; (3) a flexible labour market fosters employment; (4) disabled workers are more likely to be in temporary employment in countries with a flexible labour market. Hypotheses 1 and 3 find no support in the selected literature. Literature on hypotheses 2 and 4 is inconclusive. Future research avenues are suggested.
