Chapter 8
Direct discrimination
[ch 8: page 44]Direct discrimination (section 13 EA 10) occurs when an employer treats an individual less favourably because of a disability. This may happen if an employer makes assumptions about someone’s abilities or bases decisions on stereotypes. This includes someone who had a disability in the past.
