| Summary: | The purpose of this dissertation was to characterize, evaluate, and present the
labor market outcomes of deaf impaired persons, as well as their labor market
results in labor force participation, employment, and unemployment. Using data
from Greece’s national statistics agency and a nationwide health survey conducted
every five years, it was determined if hearing impairments have a negative influence
on the labor market outcomes of deaf and hard of hearing persons in Greece.There
is a scarcity of economic scientific study on the labor outcomes of deaf people and,
more broadly, on economic well-being, particularly in the Greek labor market.
Some of the findings of this thesis agree with the scientific study, while some
disagree.There is a need for economic academics to do more extensive study on
the labor market outcomes of deaf persons in the Greek labor market.
