Chapter 7

People who had a disability but have since recovered 




[ch 7: pages 194-195]

The EA 10 continues to protect someone who was disabled in the past, even though they have since recovered. For example, a woman who, four years ago, experienced a mental illness that had a substantial and long-term adverse effect on her ability to carry out day-to-day activities but has experienced no recurrence of the condition is still protected by the EA 10 because she is a person with a past disability.
