    Abstract
    In Kenya besides many organizations lobbying for the increased employment of PLWDs, amplified by the constitution that at least 5% elective positions must be spared for (PLWDs) there is less employment opportunities. For example the entire cabinet and parastatal secretaries of about twenty six people only one is disabled. The empirical review has pointed out that employer perception views people living with disabilities as costly, and disturbing. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of employer perception on employment opportunities for PLWDs. The population was PLWDs in selected Universities in Kenya and associations of Disabled people in Kenya. Sample size was employees living with Disabilities and members of the association of disabled in Murang’a County. The findings were presented in tabular form. Descriptive as well as inferential statistics were used to analyze the findings. The findings showed that Disabled people are unemployed due to negative employer perception towards employees. The study recommended that negative employer perception must be changed in order the employment of those with disabilities to be enhanced.
