The purpose of the study is to identify the moderating effect of life satisfaction in the relationship between perceived discrimination and job retention in people with disabilities. It is for figuring out the effective way to sustain the job for the working disabled. For this, the materials have been utilized and analyzed, which are of the disabled status research by Korean Health Society Research Institute in 2011. The target for analysis is 1,632 working disabled people who are above 20 years old. The result of the research is as follows. First of all, there are general social discrimination experiences which the disabled usually face with. Related to those experiences, the period of job retention gets short as much as the disabled experience discrimination at the work place. Secondly. As long as they have the high level of life satisfaction, the disabled sustain their job for a long time. Thirdly, as for the relation between the disabled’s discrimination experience at the work place and job retention, the moderating effect of life satisfaction level showed a statistically meaningful result. It means that the higher the level of life satisfaction, the longer the job retention period. In contrast, while more and more they experience discrimination at work, shorter and shorter the period of job retention gets. Based on this, the study suggests ractical and meaningful methods for increasing the job retention of people with disabilities.
