The EURES portal now includes detailed information on disability support across all 27 EU countries, plus Switzerland and Iceland, under its ‘Living and working’ section. Country-specific pages provide legal definitions of disability, recognition procedures, employment rights, social security, healthcare, accessibility guidance, and contact points. The update aims to help people with disabilities access employment opportunities by removing barriers and promoting inclusion. It includes practical details such as where to apply for disability recognition, required medical documentation, and access to workplace adaptations or social benefits. Employers can explore funding options for hiring disabled individuals, while jobseekers can learn about accessible public services. The initiative supports the estimated 107 million people with disabilities in the EU, addressing labor market disadvantages highlighted in 2020 statistics.
