    Compensation For Disability Discrimination

     

    The Equality Act 2010 was put in place to eradicate discrimination in the workplace by both employers and prospective players against individuals due to their disability age or any other personal characteristic that they have. However people are still finding that they are treated less favourably at work by employers.

    Gary O’Donoghue political correspondent for BBC News recently reported on the challenges the job market gave to disabled jobseekers. His article states that “job-hunting at the best of times can be demoralising process. But if you are disabled and the country is in the midst of an economic downturn then it can prove utterly pointless”.

    His article goes on to say how figures from the Office for National Statistics state that “52% of disabled people between the ages of 16 and 64 or economically inactive. That compares to a figure of 23% of the general population ? in other words you’re more than twice as likely to not have a job if you have a disability”.
