Abstract: This article aims to investigate the factors affecting inclusion of people with disabilities in organizations and the influence of these factors on disability inclusion. A survey, using a pretested structured questionnaire, of managers has been administered to collect the data. The respondents, who have had experience of working with people with disability (PWD), were selected using the convenience sampling method. The total usable responses were 108. Factor analysis is used to identify the factors followed by logistic regression analysis to assess the impact of various factors on disability inclusion. The findings of the study suggest that top management commitment, inclusive culture, supportive workplace and disability-HRM fit are the major factors affecting the inclusion of disabled persons at workplace.
