Scientific article: Systematic review of labour market outcomes of people who are deaf and hard of hearing

The study aims to synthesise empirical evidence on differences in labour market outcomes between deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) individuals and their typically hearing (TH) counterparts through a systematic review.

The outcomes examined included income, employment participation, absenteeism and compensation, early retirement, occupation type, and gender disparities in these areas.

The results were presented and discussed in a sounding board with members including people with lived experience, professionals, researchers, and representatives from diverse DHH-related organisations.
