Key Statistics and Figures Key Gaps Knowledge Gaps
Five in 100 disabled people are estimated to be employed. Singapore’s PWD employment rate is at among the lowest in developed societies. There is currently no representative statistic for number of disabled people in Singapore → to watch 2020 population census (n = 150,000)
Persons with disabilities comprised about 0.55% of the resident labour force. Most go into hospitality, F&B, wholesale and retail/admin support, with a median monthly income of $1,000 - $2,800. Low supply and diversity of job opportunities, and rigid employment models for PWDs. There is no knowledge of retention rates/duration of disabled people in their various jobs.
Close to 176,000 disabled people are of working age. Training opportunities do not improve employment outcomes and are not accessible across all disabilities.
  • SG Enable has placed more than 1,200 PWDs in jobs within the past three years, in the retail, F&B, IT and other sectors. 
  • PWDs comprise 0.55% of the resident labour force. Median monthly gross wage ranged from $1,000 to $2,800. 
  • According to MOM data, more than 25% of PWDs aged 15 to 64 are employed
    • The sectors employing most of these people are community, social and personal services, food services, administrative and support services, and manufacturing. Together, they account for more than half of workers with disabilities.
    • 27.6 per cent of PWDs are employed, for those aged 15 to 39
    • 37.8 per cent for those between 40 and 49
    • 26.1 per cent for those between 50 and 64
    • 5.9 per cent for those who are 65 and older.
  • The Straits Times has calculated that five in 100 PWDs have job.
  • 8,600 estimated to be employed in the public and private sector in 2017.[1]
