8. Reasonable adjustments and discrimination arising from disability
[ch 8: page 56]Under the EA 10, direct and indirect discrimination, harassment and victimisation because of disability are all unlawful (see Chapters 4 to 7).
In addition, there are two further categories of legal rights unique to disability discrimination law. They are:
• protection from discrimination arising from disability (section 15, EA 10); and
• the employer’s duty to make reasonable adjustments (section 20, EA 10).
These two categories are looked at in this Chapter.
