Join Real and the Legal Advice Centre for the first workshop of our Spring series on disability employment law.

Some of the things this workshop will cover include:

– The definition of a disability as defined under the Equality Act (2010).
– Your obligations under the act and an explanation in what’s considered ‘discriminatory and unlawful’.
– What happens when you don’t know and can’t be reasonably expected to know if a worker has a disability.
– Changes you can make to your workplace and the role so Disabled workers aren’t disadvantaged.
– What’s considered ‘reasonable’ in practice and what isn’t.
– Obtaining medical evidence to support the implementation of reasonable adjustments.
