Abstract

Focuses on institutional discrimination in employment and explains why anti‐discrimination legislation is the most likely solution. Defines institutional discrimination against disabled people, then provides substantive quantitative evidence of institutional discrimination in employment. Examines the main factors which cause that discrimination, and finally evaluates government policies relating to disabled people’s employment.
