Disabled persons are more likely to be unemployed when compared with those without disabilities. This descriptive research tries to analyze the profile of disabled persons in Karaikal and Puducherry and find out the reasons for disabled being unemployed. Results of the study reveal that a quarter of disabled have remained unemployed for a very long period despite their willingness to work due to lack of qualifications, proper career guidance, inadequate support from banks to start business ventures and other people discouraging them from finding a job.
