In accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) No. 8 on Decent Work and Economic Growth, people with and without disabilities have equal rights to access decent and productive jobs. Furthermore, the fulfillment of the righths of disabled people to decent jobs will help to achieve SDG No. 10 on Reduced Inequality. However, in reality, there are pervasive and persistent barriers for people with disabilities to access the labor market. Using Indonesian data, this study examines labor market exclusion among people with disabilities and identifies the challenges that they face. Our findings on labor force participation, unemployment status, employment status as self-employed or employee in the formal sector, and feeling discouraged to enter the labor market indicate that being disabled is associated with a greater probability of being excluded from the labor market and of feeling discouraged, particularly among unemployed individuals. Various factors, including individual level factors, environmental supports, and government policies, affect the inclusion of disabled people in the labor market. These imply that the governments need to strengthen the affirmative actions and promote disabled people’s capabilities to increase employment opportunities for them. Important measures to improve labor market inclusion among people with disabilities are ensuring that their employment quota is enforced and protecting their rights to access employment, increasing their access to high-quality formal and non-formal education, and increasing their access to credit.

Despite the outgrowing trend on assistive technology assisting blind student to be fully participate in education, the challenges remain in the area of English language learning. The inconsistency of the soundspelling relationship in English apparently triggers the spelling problems for the Blind student since he tends to encode syllables by as it sounded. This study aims to identify, classify and analyze the spelling errors committed by the blind students in learning English using the classification of NEFR (National Foundation for Educational Research) that comprises the aspects of omissions, substitutions, insertions, transpositions and grapheme substitution. Employing case study design, this research elaborate the spelling error committed by 1 blind EFL learner enrolling an Academic Writing course in English Language Education Program, Faculty of Cultural Studies, Universitas Brawijaya, Indonesia. The findings expose that the blind students tend to frequently do spelling error in the aspect of grapheme substitution followed by omissions, substitutions, and insertion. Some contributive factors that presumably affecting the errors are (1) lack exposure to the formation of the words, (2) inherent of language (silent letter, homophone and borrowing words), (3) different characteristics of L1 and L2, and (4) student's preferences on reading (use screen reader more than braille text). Thus, the exposure toward phonetics symbol and the sound-letter relationship in English should be more disseminated so the blind student is capable of having a correct spelling.
