This exploratory research utilised mixed method (qualitative and quantitative), a survey and secondary data was used together data, the quantitative data was then analysed using descriptive statistics. Study findings indicate that most of the disabled persons in Nigeria considers teleworking as a commodious working arrangement.The study concludes by stating that timely and appropriate accommodations such as teleworking can help employees who experience disabilities stay at work instead of avoiding the labour force, which is consistent with prior literature.
