What a cope. They really think we're that stupid. The overall workforce participation hasn't increased since pre-covid times. So the question arises - where have those people with disabilities been before 2021 and what happened to the non-disabled people who held their jobs pre-2021? Could it be that they got disabled by a black swan event starting from 2021 and that translated to a rise of disabled people in the workforce we're seeing? Gee, I haven't a clue!
How are they not? What's the line of reasoning that would lead you to presume 50% more disabled people, who previously weren't employed, entered the work force since 2021?
So there is obviously a correlation between that and the number of people with disabilities entering the workforce rising.
What is not obvious from any of the numbers on the site however is any kind of correlation between the data mentioned before and Covid 19 vaccinations (which you are implying).
Therefore, it's very easy to dismiss your implication because it't literally based on fucking nothing.
I can show you a fucking million graphs that shows an increase of a parameter over years and pretend it's caused by Covid 19 vaccines. This is not how statistics work and implying otherwise if just fucking pathetic.
There is an upward trend, that's correct, but it's not evenly distributed. They've gone up 4000 for the 10-year period 2010-2020. Then in the 3-year period of 2021-2024 they've gone up another 4000.
This perfectly explains the rise of 50% in disabled in the workforce and debunks what the fred blog article claimed, so thank you for bringing it up. Namely, the reason for more disabled people in the workforce isn't the greater availability of home office jobs, but rather the greatly increased number of newly disabled people.
This graph is even better than the workforce one. The question is why do we see such a huge difference between the trend of disabilities before and after 2021? It's a real headscratcher.

So you believe that all the numbers on this website are accurate?
How are they not? What's the line of reasoning that would lead you to presume 50% more disabled people, who previously weren't employed, entered the work force since 2021?
I am not saying they aren't. I just want to make sure to understand that you trust government numbers.
So to answer your question:
Here's a graph from the same page. Disability numbers have been rising for years, way before COVID 19.
