EAT Disability Discrimination – Reasonable adjustments – Justification – PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Costs
Disability Discrimination – Indirect Discrimination (section 19 Equality Act 2010) – Discrimination by Reasons of a Failure to Make Reasonable Adjustments (sections 20 and 21)
The Claimant made complaints of indirect disability discrimination and discrimination by reason of a failure to make reasonable adjustments, in respect of two PCPs: (1) his placement within the Respondent’s redeployment pool, and (2) the requirement that he take an online test as part of the selection process in respect of higher grade vacancies in July 2012. His claims having been rejected by the ET and an award of costs made against him, the Claimant appealed. The Respondent also pursued a cross-appeal against the finding of disadvantage for the purposes of section 19.
