Disability Discrimination

Disability law is complex. There are six types of disability discrimination. Depending on the type of discrimination, knowledge of the disability may be relevant (or not) and an employer may (or may not) be able to defend a claim if it can justify it’s treatment of a disabled employee.

A snap-shot of cases heard by the employment appeal tribunal will usually show disability cases heavily featured. Every disability case will be come down to the individual circumstances, including the type of disability, its impact on the employee’s work, the size and nature of the employers business and available resources.

The aim of this hub is to provide accessible employment law disability discrimination articles, comment and updates.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Disability Discrimination Articles” font_container=”tag:h6|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:900%20bold%20regular%3A900%3Anormal”][td_block_12 category_ids=”-232,” tag_slug=”disability discrimination, disability direct discrimination, indirect disability discrimination, disability” limit=”7″ ajax_pagination=”load_more”][vc_custom_heading text=”The disability discrimination hub is sponsored by Didlaw” font_container=”tag:h5|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:500%20bold%20regular%3A500%3Anormal” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.employmentsolicitor.com%2F||target:%20_blank|rel:nofollow”][td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Disability FAQs” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:900%20bold%20regular%3A900%3Anormal”][vc_toggle title=”What is the definition of disability?” el_id=”1480029142296-f12bcaf6-8a11″][/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Does an employer need to know about the disability?” el_id=”1480029231037-1c30cb16-33d2″][/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is the duty to make reasonable adjustments?” el_id=”1480029913036-d038f9f4-4e3c”][/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”When can an employer terminate employment due to long-term disability related sickness absence?” el_id=”1487142461597-0e37f33c-7eca”][/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What are the types of disability discrimination?” el_id=”1487142534933-fa080f53-9071″][/vc_toggle][vc_custom_heading text=”This hub is sponsored by Didlaw” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:center” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:900%20bold%20regular%3A900%3Anormal” link=”||target:%20_blank|rel:nofollow”][td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″][td_block_author custom_title=”Experts” author_id=”51″][vc_custom_heading text=”Disability Cases” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:900%20bold%20regular%3A900%3Anormal”][td_block_8 custom_title=”” category_id=”232″ tag_slug=”disability discrimination, disability direct discrimination, indirect disability discrimination, disability”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The content of this Hub is for guidance only and does not constitute legal advice (nor is it intended to constitute legal advice).
