Background: Individuals with intellectual disabilities have the lowest employment rates amongst all disability types, despite available job opportunities. Employer bias is a significant barrier to their workforce participation. This research examines employers' opinions towards hiring individuals with intellectual disabilities in Serbia. Method: The sample included 358 employers. General attitudes and opinions on hiring individuals with intellectual disabilities were assessed using the Community Living Attitudes Scale and the Work for People with Disability Scale. Results: Employers' perspectives towards hiring individuals with intellectual disabilities are ambiguous. However, those with positive contact experiences view their employment more favourably, particularly regarding social acceptance in the workplace compared to work performance. Conclusions: The findings indicate that employers in Serbia are not yet prepared to provide equal opportunities to individuals with intellectual disabilities. Increased engagement from relevant institutions is essential to develop new intervention programmes that enhance employment outcomes.
