Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to elucidate the main aspects of recent data production regarding the population with disabilities in Brazil. In its first section, a documentary and bibliographic research is employed to unveil the influence of debates surrounding disability conceptions on the collection of statistical information. Subsequently, parameters for the identification of individuals with disabilities are presented in the 2019 National Health Survey, the 2022 Continuous National Household Sample Survey, and the 2022 Demographic Census. Although these surveys are conducted by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics and adhere to the recommendations of the Washington Group on Disability Statistics, they employ distinct questionnaires, requiring careful attentionusers of this data. In the third section, sociodemographic indicators generatedthe microdata of the 2019 National Health Survey and the 2022 Continuous National Household Sample Survey are analyzed to elucidate differences between them and contemplate the adoption of a cutoff point to define people with disabilities. It is observed that individuals with more severe difficulties are the ones facing greater challenges in accessing education and the labor market.
