Figure 1. Employment rates of general population and people with hearing disability in 2017. Notes: The employment rate is the number of persons employed expressed as a percentage of the population 15 years of age and over. The employment rate for a particular group (individuals with hearing disability) is the number employed in that group expressed as a percentage of the population for that group. Estimates are percentages, rounded to the nearest tenth. All rates in the charts/tables are calculated excluding non-response categories ("refusal," "don't know," and "not stated") in the denominator.
