, over 60 million US adults have a disability, which can include people with mobility disabilities and cognition disabilities.
The authors of the report from the Center for American Progress, which includes Ives-Rublee, note that the employment-population ratio has been about three times higher for people without disabilities than those with disabilities based on annual data starting in 2009. "So when people talk about why can't I find anybody to work for me or et cetera, there are people who want to be employed," Ives-Rublee said."The problems remain around discrimination, barriers to being able to apply and obtain a job, and the ability to maintain a job."talked to experts about the barriers job seekers and workers with disabilities encounter, whether that be during the application process are on the job.
Ives-Rublee said one of the main problems is"employers just don't understand disability and so they make these assumptions about disabled workers." Another issue Ives-Rublee said is businesses"don't prepare beforehand", such as not considering how they are seeking out this talent and the barriers that their outreach may have.
