Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Implementation
As employers, you are responsible for everything your employees
do or say at work. Don't be done for discrimination! We can
support you in addressing your responsibilities in law under the
Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).
From December 2006 the Disability Discrimination Act will place a duty on all public bodies to promote Disability Equality.
This requires all public organisations to have due regard to:
- Promoting equality of opportunity between Disabled People and Non-Disabled people.
- Eliminating discrimination that is unlawful under the Act
- Eliminating harassment of Disabled People that is related to their impairments
- Promoting positive attitudes towards Disabled People
- Encouraging participation by Disabled People in public life
- Taking account of Disabled People's impairments, even where that involves treating Disabled People more favourably then others
We provide training courses for raising your staff's awareness of the accessibility requirements of Disabled People.
