In a research study, the vocational status of 172 patients with multiple sclerosis who were from 20 to 50 years of age was evaluated. These patients constituted 35% of the total population having multiple sclerosis in Israel. Ninety-four are working and 78 are unemployed. In the unemployed group, 41 are severely disabled but 37 have working potential. No rational explanation could be found in the demographic, vocational or educational backgrounds for the unemployment of the 37 patients. It is suggested that a vocational rehabilitation program at the onset of the patient's disability may prevent eventual unemployment.
在一项研究中，对172名年龄在20至50岁之间的多发性硬化症患者的职业状况进行了评估。这些患者占以色列多发性硬化症总人口的35%。其中94人有工作，78人失业。在失业组中，41人严重残疾，但37人有工作潜力。在这37名患者的人口统计学、职业或教育背景中，找不到导致他们失业的合理原因。建议在患者残疾初期开展职业康复计划，以防止最终失业。
