The aim of this cross-sectional study was to answer two central research questions:(i) what are Greek employers' attitudes to employing people with a range of disabilities; and (ii) do employers' attitudes differ according to the type of disability? The study sample comprised 102 local employers with small-sized retail trade and service businesses located in semi-urban areas of Lesvos and Chios, Greek islands in the North Aegean Sea. The results show that employers' attitudes differed depending on the type of disability; most respondents believed that it would be easier for people with diabetes, thalassaemia or renal insufficiency to gain employment than those with schizophrenia, blindness, learning disability or depression.
