Summary The percentage of people with disabilities in the population of working age is significant. However, the employment rate of disabled people is considerably lower than that of the rest of the population. The employment rate amongst this group was 20 to 30% below that of non-disabled people. The new European Employment Strategy is crucial importance for people with disabilities. The focus on preventive measures through early identification of individual needs and tailormade responses can reverse the trend of the underemployment of disabled people. This paper seeks to establish a set of fundamental policy issues concerning employment and disability in Greece within the European Union. The aim of this paper is to provide a framework of reference for Greece in order to meet the objectives of their employment strategies, including the enhancement of employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Greece and furthermore to point some of the certain issues relating to the employment strategy, related social-policies and perspective plans of people with developmental disabilities on European Union.
