Introduction: One of the primary concerns for individuals with disabilities and their families is the issue of employment. This concern is emphasized by many counseling experts. With this in mind, the current study aims to qualitatively investigate the barriers to employment for physically-motor disabled men.

The population of interest consisted of all individuals with physical-motor disabilities in Yazd city in 2022. The sample for this research was selected from men using targeted and accessible sampling. The sample size continued until data saturation was reached, resulting in 12 interviews. The data was analyzed using the seven-step Claizey coding method.
Results: The interviews revealed three main themes related to the barriers to employment for people with disabilities: 1) environmental and societal factors, 2) family factors, and 3) individual and internal factors. Additionally, 18 sub-themes were identified regarding the employment barriers for individuals with physical-motor disabilities.
Conclusion: Due to the unique challenges faced by individuals with disabilities, many obstacles exist in the realm of employment. This article investigates and highlights these obstacles. In order to mitigate the barriers to employment for people with disabilities, a program is needed. Structural and functional planning at various levels is necessary to address this issue.
