EAT Disability Discrimination – In this case the Claimant had not been diagnosed as having dyslexia but he did have certain difficulties and it was common ground that with his sleep apnoea he was disabled. The Employment Tribunal was entitled to hold that it was the Claimant’s refusal to co-operate that frustrated any attempt to assist the Claimant. In construing a decision a broad approach should be taken and it was wrong to subject a decision to myopic scrutiny when on an overview it was clear why an ET had reached a particular decision.
