Abstract :
Purpose behind this study is to find out what mindfulness means for persons with disabilities at workplace. One of the most important reason for conducting this study is to understand the term from organizational perspective with special reference to diverse workforce. Design/Methodology/Approach: Qualitative technique has been used, wherein PwDs interviewed and their opinions & experiences have been taken to get clear understanding about mindfulness. Findings: Various situations have been reported wherein differently abled employees realize the lack of awareness and consciousness about mindfulness. Moreover, it has also been observed that the organizations have just started taking mini steps towards creating mindful culture. Therefore, there is a room for taking concerted efforts. Originality/Value: This study is original in nature and has not been published anywhere else.
