      ab: The article presents information on Labor Market Participation of Physically Handicapped Persons in Minnesota. The Industrial Relations Center of the University of Minnesota conducted a survey of the State of Minnesota during the summer of 1958, using accepted sampling techniques, in order to get an estimate of the size and characteristics of the physically handicapped population in Minnesota. A total of 2,440 households were interviewed throughout the state and 521 handicapped persons were identified. Of these persons, 255 were of labor force age and were not students or housewives. The survey showed that 59 per cent of the physically disabled persons were employed and 41 per cent were unemployed. If the unemployed group is restricted to those persons who were actively looking for work, then the percentages change to 81 per cent employed and 19 per cent unemployed. During the same period, unemployment in Minnesota for the total labor force was only 5.9 per cent. Seven per cent of the group had never held a full-time job, and 17 per rent had not returned to work since becoming handicapped.
