According to data from the Observatory on Disability and the Labor Market in Spain (ODISMET) of the ONCE Foundation, and the report "The Working Life of People with Disabilities," published in 2022 by the National Institute of Statistics, both with 2020 data, in Spain there are a total of 340,800 people between the ages of 16 and 64 with psychosocial disabilities, of whom only 26.6% are in the active population, that is, they are looking for a job, working, or undergoing some form of training. If we refer specifically to the employment rate, we see that it only reaches 17.1% among this population. If we focus on the young population (between 16 and 24 years old) with psychosocial disabilities, there are 29,100 young people, of whom only 11.8% were undergoing some form of training in 2019.

The employment rate for people with psychosocial disabilities is 9.6 percentage points lower than that of people with other disabilities. The data above demonstrates that the population affected by mental disorders faces the greatest difficulty, not only compared to the general population, but also within the context of disability, in entering the labor market.

AMAFE, aware of the current employment situation, has been providing continuous support since 2011 to people with psychosocial disabilities, including a training and employment program tailored to their individual needs in their recovery process.
