Five Well-Paying Jobs For Job Seekers with Disabilities
Five Well-Paying Jobs For Job Seekers with Disabilities
If you’re one of the millions of Americans living with a
disability, finding a job can be a stressful task, in part because there may be
lingering doubts about your capabilities in the workforce. But being
differently-abled simply means that you handle tasks in a different way,
whether it’s because of your physical abilities or because you simply think
outside the box. Fortunately, there are laws put in place for your protection
when seeking out a job, ensuring that an employer cannot discriminate against
you because of your disability, and there are several well-paying jobs out
there that offer flexibility and the chance to shine doing something you enjoy.
Whether your differently-abled condition requires you to
work from home with limited social interaction or is something purely physical,
here are a handful of the best jobs to look for that also pay well.
Dog walking with
Rover.com
For those living with emotional disabilities, working with
animals can be highly fulfilling and can help form a bond that assists with
critical thinking and empathy. Jobs such as dog-walking can offer a flexible schedule
and the opportunity to earn quite a bit of cash, even on a part-time basis.
Sites like Rover.com
are extremely helpful in finding pet owners in need of a responsible caregiver,
either as a dog-walker or boarder; simply sign up and let them pair you
with a local animal owner, and they’ll even take care of the financial end of
things.
Pharmacy technician
According to Forbes.com, jobs in the pharmacy industry are
great for people living with disabilities because they may have insight into
using certain medications, and they can be a wonderful asset for a pharmacy
when it comes to helping a customer with similar conditions. It can be an
especially fulfilling job for those who have lost a limb, such as a military
veteran. While the average pay for a pharmacy technician or assistant varies
greatly depending on which state you live in, you can expect to make anywhere
from $30,000 - $40,000/year to start.
Computer support via
Craigslist.org
There is always a need in the tech world for patient and
skilled specialists who can help companies and their customers with any
problems that arise, and many businesses require at least a partial staff to be
on-call 24 hours a day. There are great opportunities with jobs like these,
because as companies upgrade their software, there is always need for trained
support specialists. Many businesses offer on-the-job training and some may
allow employees with disabilities — such as the visually- or hearing impaired —
to work from home. The median income for these types of jobs is
around $51,000/year. Check out Craiglist.org for opportunities in your area.
Accounting
If you’re good with numbers, a career in accounting may be
right for you. Many universities and community colleges offer two-year programs
(many of which can be completed from home online) to become accredited, and if
working for a firm isn’t right for you, self-employment is also an option. You
can expect to make between $50,000 and $60,000/year with a job in this area.
Educator
Jobs in education can be hugely rewarding, and now that so
many schools are offering their classes online, it’s easier than ever to find a
teaching job that can be done from home or with software that allows anyone
with a disability to engage with students. If you have experience with art,
music, sports, or language, you might consider tutoring or coaching on your own
time as well. Salaries in education vary widely, but if you find employment
with a school you can probably expect around $40,000/year to start. Some
special education teachers make up to $53,000 in a year.
