It is a well-established principle of equality legislation that employers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to support disabled workers.
What is reasonable will depend on the particular circumstances but could include measures such as:
- Finding a different way to do something, such as providing training in a different way, allowing extra time for certain tasks or considering different ways of distributing work
- Making changes to the workplace, such as installing a ramp, providing extra lighting, and reorganising the layout of a work area
