>41.1 percent of people with disabilities in Belgium have work, according to a recent study by the King Baudouin Foundation. The figures are especially low in Brussels (27.7 percent), followed by Wallonia (32.9 percent). Flanders does better with 48.2 percent, but that is also below par compared to several other European countries.
>Three quarters of respondents emphasize that employers need more insight and understanding. They want to work, but encounter closed doors. The cause of low employment is often attributed to prejudice, discrimination and inadequate adjustments in the workplace.
