The CPS uses several questions to determine if individuals are limited in their ability to work or are unable to work. The questions in the CPS were not designed or tested with the intent of measuring disability. If a person is identified by any of the seven items below, he or she is considered to have a work disability.
In addition, the Census algorithm holds that a person who says “Yes” to items D3-D6 has a severe work disability.
