Studies have shown that people with disabilities frequently experience inconsistent employment behaviors, which could hinder their careers and put them at a disadvantage compared to their counterparts who are not disabled (Shahidi, F.V. et al., 2023). The objectives are increasing productivity, maximizing their potential, and placing them in positions where they can thrive. A qualitative descriptive design was used where the multiple case study design was selected for its strength in providing an in-depth, contextual understanding of the experiences of Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in the restaurant industry of Tagaytay City. The participants comprised managers and non-apparent individuals from the casual dining establishment. Analysis was conducted using the triangulation method on employees, managers, and policy documentation. The primary data collection method was complemented with interviews conducted through recordings and observations. This study also used the triangulation method, which is employed to enhance the validity and reliability of the research. This method involves using multiple data sources and perspectives to cross-verify the findings. This study found that having non-apparent PWD personnel plays a significant advantage over apparent PWD employees working in the industry. This study revealed that there are PWD participants who experienced struggles with their work due to their disability. However, these struggles served as their motivation to strive despite their disability. The researchers also found that PWD employees are only given restricted responsibilities inside the organization since none of the businesses provide specific training. To conclude, results indicate that implementing specialized training for PWD employees can help them develop skills that can benefit persons with disabilities.
