What is a partial disability pension?

A partial disability pension is granted when an individual's ability to participate in the labour market according to an integrated expert assessment is assessed at 26-50% due to a long-term or serious health or disability. A partial disability pension is 82% of the full amount of the disability pension and will be approved indefinitely.

Activity support is intended for individuals who have been assessed for partial disability pension according to an integrated expert assessment and are seeking employment with the assistance of the Directorate of Labour.
