Objective: To describe and understand the strengths, fears, perceptions and barriers that arise in the process of work integration of persons with disabilities in five autonomous regions of Spain. Methods: Qualitative study, addressed through techniques such as participant observation, questionnaires and in-depth interviews, which to identify the strengths, motivations and fears aroused the process of job insertion for persons with disabilities assigned to a work program inclusion. And to publicize the perception of employers and job coaches on this process, and uncover the barriers to must overcome people with disabilities to obtain a job. The sample consisted of 161 people, of who 80 belonged to the group of persons with disabilities, 70 entrepreneurs and 11 job coaches. Results: Through the study, people with disabilities or functional diversity strengthened labor and personal competencies, which allowed them an ostensibly improvement in the possibility of employability. In spite of this, the result was of 0.01 of employability of the collective in mention. Conclusions: It is complex to approach and give concrete solutions to the process of labor insertion of people with disabilities, despite the existence of European and Spanish policies that stimulate and encourage both public and private companies to hire these people. It was also pointed out that in exchange for employing this group, companies prefer to buy products made by people working in the Special Employment Centers, possibly because of the lack of knowledge about the labor inclusion process of this group and, moreover, the constant presence of Actions and attitudes of discrimination towards this population.
