Abstract
Unemployment is the main problem within many countries, and it has been increasing in the past few years especially during pandemic COVID-19, not only concerning for fresh graduates but also for people with disabilities. This study is made to understand the factors leading to job opportunities among people with disabilities, which are education, training, job placement, and internship. The study also aims to find challenges and barriers to job opportunity among people with disabilities. It aims to create awareness regarding people with disabilities to be accepted in the society as differently abled persons with specialties. The study findings shows that there is correlation between education, training, job placement, and internship for both hiring and non-hiring companies. To conclude, research findings show that training and work placement experience are factors of job opportunity for people with disabilities. The main challenges or barriers are communication, attitudes, and perceptions of co-workers towards employees with disabilities.
