Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore experience of people with mentally disability for work drop-out.
Methods: Participants were 10 persons with an intellectual disability. The Colaizzi’s phenomenological method was utilized. Data were collected using non-structured interviews.

The theme-clusters were ’Struggling in work’, ’Being a stranger in the office’, ’Struggling in standing alone’, ’Feeling ambivalent’, ’Waiting for a new opportunity for work’, ’Being determined to make an effort to maintain a job’, ’Expecting myself to gain recognition’.
Conclusion: The outcomes of this study indicate a need to design intervention programs and directions to introduce realistic improvement plans for people with intellectual disabilities in order to decrease work drop-out.
