Unit 26 P3 Why do barriers exist?P3: Explain barriers which may be experienced by individuals with additional needs.
Barriers: (how and why?)
Employment opportunities
There are a variety of different reasons why barriers may be created for employment opportunities
these could be;
Being unaware of job opportunities due to poor advertisement, for example on inaccessible job
boards online.
Inaccessible application, for example, a lack of appropriate formats for individuals who are
visually impaired.
The employment interview being unapproachable, for example, no ramp for wheelchair users.
The individual seeking employment may not have experienced the same educational, work
experience or training opportunities as other individuals may have.
Discrimination from other employees may prohibit the individual from entering employment at
the highest levels they were qualified for.

ignorant to the difficulties such as being unable to enter a building, preventing participation in daily
life and activities. Examples of attitudinal barriers include;
Stereotyping – Individuals may occasionally stereotype individuals with disabilities, making
assumptions that the disabled individual has a poor quality of life or they are unhealthy due to
their impairment.
Stigma, discrimination and prejudice – In society, these forms of attitude may come from ideals
associated with disability, for example, some individuals view disability as a personal misfortune,
something that must be prevented or treated, an inability to normalise correctly within society,
or a punishment for misconduct.
Modern society’s knowledge of disability is advancing as a disability is comprehended as what

physical environment. By not judging disability to be a personal discrepancy, but rather as a social
