Jobs for citizens with an autism diagnosis

Why?
 

The number of people with an autism diagnosis has increased greatly in recent decades, and today about 1% of all Danes have an autism diagnosis. About 65% of citizens with an autism diagnosis are dependent and there is a need to ensure greater attachment to the labour market for these citizens.
