Abstract: A disabled person has difficulty finding a decent job according to their skills because of no job availability. To address this, the government created a regulation requiring companies to provide equal opportunities to people with disabilities. After the regulation was enacted, it was not implemented to the maximum in private and state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Therefore, the purpose of this research is to find out what are the employment opportunities in Indonesia for people with disabilities, what are the forms of equal employment opportunity (EEO) for people with disabilities, and whether Indonesian HR managers know the rules governing disability quotas. Data collection was made with focus group discussion (FGD) and interviews conducted by involving managers and staff members of human resources who are members of the Gerakan Nasional Indonesia Kompeten. This study concluded that the quota of 1% had not been met for non-SOE companies, so it can be said that EEO is not carried out in non-SOE companies, while state-owned enterprises EEO has begun to be enforced primarily in the recruitment process.
