Did you know that, a higher percentage of workers with disabilities are employed in essential positions such as agricultural, public administration, manufacturing and retail than people without disabilities.
“Of the five major occupation groups, people with a disability were more concentrated in service occupations than those with no disability, 19% compared to 17% percent. In addition, workers with a disability are also more likely than those without a disability to work in production, transportation, and material moving occupations, around 14%, compared with around 12%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics."
