Abstract
This research looks at Bangladesh's whole legal framework with regard to special children's employment, rehabilitation, and the laws' restrictions. For the purpose of achieving any aim, the application of law is crucial. The goal of this study was to identify a better living system, such as employment, where people are employed to do what is best for them. At a certain age, people may require assistance to live their lives as they would in old age. Open-ended questionnaires were used to obtain the data. This study explores Bangladesh's government policies on the employment, education, and rehabilitation of children with special needs. It assesses the existing regulations, their shortcomings, and the report emphasizes how crucial inclusiveness and fair chances for kids with special needs are to the social and economic advancement of Bangladesh. This research looks at potential treatments and policy implications in an effort to strengthen the framework for these kids' holistic development and promote a society that is more accepting and caring. Purposive sampling was used to choose the participants. The findings showed that people's perceptions of inclusive environments were generally favorable.
