The New Worklife Expectancy Tables, now in its sixth edition for 2006,
continues to be the only source of
worklife
expectancy statistics adjusted for disability. Derived from
government statistics, these tables are subdivided by:
- Age - Worklife expectancies are provided
for each age from 16 through 74.
- Education - Education categories are: less
than high school, high school degree or equivalent, some college but less than
baccalaureate, and baccalaureate and higher. A final category is
included averaging all persons, regardless of education level.
- Gender - Separate tables are provided for
males and females.
- Level of Work Disability - Using data from
the Annual Social and Economic Supplement and from the American Community
Survey of the US Census Bureau, worklife expectancies
are further divided by disability status. From the ASEC, the categories
are those with no disability, those with a "not severe"
disability, and those with a "severe" disability. A category is also
provided for the average of all persons with disability, regardless of
severity. From the ACS, categories for Physical and Cognitive Disability
(by severity) are added.
The following chart depicts the impact of disability on worklife at the age
of 25:

This chart demonstrates the impact of education on worklife,
again at the age of 25, but limited to males:
