The purpose of this article is to analyse the incidence of part-time employment among people with disabilities within a European context. Particular attention is paid to the type of part-time employment (voluntary vs. involuntary) and the levels of job satisfaction that people with disabilities report.
Using data from the European Community Household Panel for the period 1995-2001, we estimate part-time rates, preferences and levels of job satisfaction for people with and without disabilities for 13 European countries.
The results show that a higher number of people with disabilities work part-time, compared to non-disabled workers. This is mainly due to disabled part-time workers having a much higher preference for part-time working than people without disability. This finding is corroborated when we analyse the levels of job satisfaction for disabled part-time workers.
Part-time employment becomes a relevant instrument for policy makers and employers to improve the social inclusion, income and labour conditions of the people with disabilities because it allows these people to achieve a much better balance between their personal and health needs and working life.
本文旨在分析欧洲范围内残疾人兼职工作的发生率。特别关注兼职工作的类型（自愿与非自愿）以及残疾人报告的工作满意度水平。
利用1995 - 2001年欧洲共同体家庭调查的数据，我们估算了13个欧洲国家有残疾和无残疾人员的兼职率、偏好及工作满意度水平。
结果显示，与非残疾工人相比，有更多的残疾人从事兼职工作。这主要是因为残疾兼职工人比非残疾人员对兼职工作的偏好要高得多。当我们分析残疾兼职工人的工作满意度水平时，这一发现得到了证实。
兼职工作成为政策制定者和雇主改善残疾人社会包容、收入和劳动条件的一项重要手段，因为它能让这些人在个人和健康需求与工作生活之间实现更好的平衡。
