How do employment support programs impact the health of young adults with episodic disabilities? (Institute for Work & Health)

Young adults with episodic disabilities may face fluctuating health challenges that could impact their career trajectory and shape health outcomes. Involvement in employment support programs can provide health benefits for young adults with episodic disabilities.

Working for Change: Understanding the employment experiences of Two Spirit, Trans, and nonbinary people in Canada (Egale Canada)

This report aims to understand workplace experiences, barriers to employment, and experiences of discrimination and bias for 2STNB people. While the findings overwhelmingly indicate that there is a long way to go to achieve employment equity for 2STNB people, it also found that some participants experienced supportive and inclusive workplaces; there is hope.

Promoting Better Career Choices for Longer Working Lives (OECD)

This report presents evidence on recent trends in career mobility and the consequences for individual workers in terms of pay and other job characteristics. It identifies key employer and public policies that can help facilitate career mobility that results in better employment choices at older ages. This requires overcoming discriminatory views towards older workers, improving job flexibility choices and ensuring that government policy supports voluntary career mobility.
