This study uses data from the Welsh Health Survey to examine issues of disability/health measurement and its impact on labour market outcomes. The data suggest that self-reported disability, general health and summary composite measures of physical and mental health are broadly consistent both in measurement and predictions for labour market outcomes. This consistency in measurement is also demonstrated at the local level but the employment disadvantage associated with disability is found to vary considerably within Wales.
