Southampton City College v Randall: EAT 22 Sep 2005

EAT Disability Discrimination: Reasonable Adjustments and Justification; Unfair Dismissal: Reasonableness of Dismissal
The Employment Tribunal is correct in finding that as employer did not regard the employee as disabled and took no steps to consider reasonable adjustments, it was entitled to find that the employer was in breach of sections 5(1) and 5(2) of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. The Employment Tribunal was also entitled, on the evidence, to find unfair dismissal. Archibald v Fife County Council [2004] IRLR 651; Mid-Staffordshire General Hospitals NHS Trust v Campbell [2003] IRLR 566; Collins v Royal National Theatre Board Limited [2004] IRLR 395 considered.
