Because of the limited research on workplace experiences of blind college-educated women, policies have not been implemented that will lead to greater equity for this group. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the workplace experiences of blind college-educated women using the social construction theory. Data were collected from semi structured interviews with 11 blind college-educated women. Results indicated that accessibility in college or at work with websites and job applications presented the greatest obstacle to successful job seeking. State rehabilitative agencies were not considered to be effective in job development, placement, or promotion. Working from home was desirable due to transportation deficiencies, and work-life balance. Findings indicated that the constructed reality sets up barriers for blind women in employment. This study is important for positive social change because it revealed heretofore unrepresented voices of blind college-educated women regarding their experiences in the workplace.
