Join us for an in-depth exploration of the legal definition of disability and the importance of reasonable adjustments (also known as workplace adjustments), to remove barriers at work for disabled people.
Speakers from the Business Disability Forum team include Katie Coates, Lead Disability Business Partner and Emily Jackson, Senior Disability Business Partner who will guide us through:
- What does the Equality Act 2010 say about disability at work?
- Reasonable adjustments and the legal framework
- Why do employers make reasonable adjustments?
- Who is responsible for making reasonable adjustments?
- When is the duty to make reasonable adjustments legally triggered?
- How can an employer decide if an adjustment is reasonable to make?
- How can employers progress from legal compliance to leading inclusive practice?
Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and we will endeavour to answer as many as we can.
