dc.description.abstractThis study examines the employment challenges faced by persons with disabilities (PWDs) in the private sector in Astana, focusing on issues related to job accessibility, workplace inclusivity, and retention. Despite government subsidies and policies aimed at increasing employability, significant barriers remain. Participants in this study included PWDs seeking employment, representatives of the Department of Employment and Social Protection, private sector employers, and NGO stakeholders. Using a mixed methods approach, data were collected through surveys, interviews, and document reviews. Quantitative data were collected and analyzed via survey of PWDs, while qualitative data were thematically analyzed to identify prevailing challenges and patterns in the employment of PWDs. The results indicate that while financial incentives motivate initial hiring, they are insufficient to promote sustainable employment due to inadequate workplace conditions and limited retention efforts. The results highlight the need for more comprehensive policies that emphasize accessibility and long-term support systems in private organizations. This study contributes to the policy debate by providing evidence-based recommendations aimed at creating a more inclusive labor market for persons with disabilities in Astana, ultimately promoting both economic and social inclusion.
