The outcomes «Working», «Work assessment allowance and/or rehabilitation benefits», «Unemployed» and «Qualification benefit» are not mutually exclusive. As a consequence one person may be counted in more than one outcome during one calendar year, either at the same time or in consecutive periods. The percentages will therefore not add to 100%.
