When you look beyond the official unemployment rate, approximately 30 million working-age Europeans are structurally outside the labour market — on disability benefits, long-term sickness, early retirement, or inactive. The fiscal cost exceeds €400 billion annually. This is the defining labour market challenge of the decade.
No other vocational intervention comes close to IPS's evidence base: 25+ randomised controlled trials across 15 countries, consistent effect sizes of 1.5–2.5× traditional rehabilitation, replicated in high-benefit welfare states including Norway, the Netherlands, and Denmark. Yet European implementation remains fragmented and under-scale.
Employer behaviour is the missing link in disability employment policy. Decades of wage subsidies, legal mandates, and awareness campaigns have produced modest results. Field experiments reveal why: employers avoid disability disclosure not from malice but from rational responses to perceived risk and information gaps. Fixing this requires understanding what employers actually fear.
Denmark's flexjob programme — a permanent wage-subsidy arrangement for people with reduced work capacity — is one of Europe's most expensive and extensive disability employment interventions. After two decades and €2+ billion in annual expenditure, the employment outcomes are more modest than the price tag suggests.
