There have been laws in place in England and Wales against discrimination since the 1960s. The Race Relations Acts of 1965 1968 and 1976 made discrimination against a person due to their race unlawful and Equal Pay Act along with the Sex Discrimination Act came into force in the 1970s to outlaw gender discrimination. However it wasn’t until 1995 that the Disability Discrimination Act came into force to outlaw disability discrimination.
Since 2010 all anti-discrimination laws and legislation were brought together under the Equality Act 2010.
Employers must provide the same employment terms and opportunities for disabled workers as they would for other employees and also make ?reasonable adjustments? to help disabled workers carry out their job role efficiently.
