Most disabled jobseekers do not reveal details of disability on application form

Of those who do tell employers, 44% were worried it would have an adverse impact on their application, according to diversity communications agency Greenlight.

Mike Hanbidge, research manager at Greenlight, said: "Jobseekers with disabilities look in exactly the same places as anyone else when looking for a job, but many welcome positive messages from employers that their disability will not be a factor when they are applying for a job."
