Providing strategies and all efforts for realising employment to people with disabilities, yet their working environment is not taken into concern, therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the challenges that people with disabilities are facing in public civil services in Tanzania, taking public higher learning institutions as the case. In examining the challenges, there a number of mechanisms used in realizing the employment issues to people with disabilities, whereby the impact of those mechanisms culminating to either solution to disabled problems or creation of more challenges. The study used the Professional Theory, the Social Model of Disability and the Needs Theory on making the association of the personal qualifications and limitations on fulfilling their needs due to the disabling environment caused by impairments. The study used cross-sectional survey on data collection through which interviews, questioners and documentary reviews were used. A total number of 80 respondents were selected and data collected were analysed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The study unveils that present laws should be reinforced in order to realize the basic need for disabled employment, because when the working environment is secured resulted into improvement of disabled performances, meanwhile the obstacles to disabled employments and working environment limits their functioning which resulted to challenges on realization of disabled inclusion.
