Sammanfattning
For decades, the employment of Norwegians with disabilities has been lower than for the rest of the population. One possible explanation is inaccessible transportation. To people with disabilities, transportation might pose a significant barrier to employment. Through interviews with people with disabilities who are currently or have been previously employed, this study identifies barriers to transportation experienced by people with disabilities, the presence of these barriers in their occupational lives and the potential consequences for employment. The study shows that transportation is an obvious obstruction to equal level of employment of people with disabilities in their early career, active career and late career.
