Educational attainment and employment among immigrants with disabilities / by Christoph Schimmele, Allison Leanage, Maciej Karpinski, Jing Shen and Rubab Arim.CS36-28-0001/2025-12-1E-PDF

"Using the 2022 Canadian Survey on Disability, this study examined differences in educational attainment and employment between immigrants with and without disabilities. Immigrant men with and without disabilities had similar levels of educational attainment, while immigrant women with disabilities had lower levels of educational attainment than women without disabilities. Immigrant men and women with disabilities had lower levels of employment than their counterparts without disabilities. Much of the gap in employment between immigrants with and without disabilities was found at lower levels of education. Among those with a bachelor's degree or higher, there was a smaller gap in employment between immigrant men with and without disabilities, and no difference in employment between immigrant women with and without disabilities. These patterns in employment were mostly similar to those between Canada-born persons with and without disabilities"--Abstract, page 1.
