@Shepherd-Banigan2021 undertake a qualitative study on the significance of vocational and educational training provided for disabled veterans in the United States.
It finds that both the vocational and educational services help strengthen individual agency, autonomy and motivation but impacts can be dampened if the potential for disability payment loss due to the potential for job acquisition impedes skill development efforts.
The primary barriers of return to work efforts identified are an individual's health problems as well as various programmes not accommodating the needs of disabled veteran students,
while the primary Facilitators identified are financial assistance provided for education as well as strengthened individual agency through motivation.

One limitation is the inability of the study to locate an active ingredient:
Though the intervention clearly aims at strengthening some aspect of individual agency, the exact mediators are not clear, with neither beliefs about work, beliefs about benefits, nor provided service use for mental health or substance abuse impacted significantly.

The studies thus not only reinforce recommendations for strength-based approaches, emphasising the benefits of work, but also highlight the targeting importance of subsidy programmes in general on the one hand,
in the worst case reducing equity through bad targeting mechanisms,
and their negative reinforcement effects widening existing inequalities of gender, age and racial discrimination through such targeting on the other.

meaningful achievement and decent work should be measured from individual economic and social-psychological indicators, especially in view of the already predominantly agency-based variety of interventions.
Similarly, @Lindsay2015 highlight a variety of barriers to activation such as limited network ties to working population, skills problems and lower levels of qualification for those receiving disability benefits,
though also emphasising environmental factors of workplaces not facilitating integration measures or issues of spatial exclusion from labour markets through being located in areas of large-scale industrial restructuring and low geographic mobility.
One framework which approaches the discussion from an almost entirely institutional-structural view is provided by the systems level theoretical grounding of @Gruber2014,
separating into the exclusionary effects of disability into institutional factors at the macro level, at the meso level and factors influencing the micro level,
and directly focusing on the separation or inclusion of education, recognition of eligibility for vocational rehabilitation and self-recognition as pre-condition for effective programme undertaking respectively.

These discussions reinforce the necessity of correct targeting, as @Poppen2017 and @Thoresen2021 highlighted in the fears of losing existing benefits, or negative relation between benefits and employment probabilities.
The case seems not one of benefits on their own diminishing the readiness for work activation, but the monetary assistance often being provided instead of effective methods of activation, environmental support and agency-driven motivating factors to their respective recipients.

There is a clear bias in studies on disability interventions towards studies undertaken in developed countries and, more specifically,
based on the Veteran Disability system in the United States which has been the object of analysis for a variety of studies but equally highlights gaps in research on the topic in other contexts and other regions.

but simultaneously highlights gaps in research on the topic in other contexts and other regions.
A recurring focus in all these discussions is their insistence on the intersectional nature of the issue, with gender, ethnicity, location, type and level of disability among others often creating more adverse conditions for disabled individuals.
This constitutes a second gap which should provide stronger focus in empirical works, in attempts to disaggregate analyses beyond disability and control group to further understand factors of inequality at work.

Research into interventions preventing income inequality are still the dominant form of measured outcomes,

they can obscure intersections with other inequalities,

Thus, while interventions attempt to tackle the inequality from a variety of institutional, structural and agency-oriented approaches already,
