Disability
Access Audits
The Disability
Discrimination Act 1995 and the Amendment Regulations 2003 place
a duty on all employers and people in control of premises where
the public have access to complete an access audit and make reasonable
adjustments so as not to discriminate against a person with a
disability.
Reasonable
adjustments should have been made by October 2004.
The law states
that a person directly discriminates against a disabled person
if, on the ground of the disabled person's disability, he
treats the disabled person less favourably than he treats or would
treat a person not having that particular disability whose relevant
circumstances, including his abilities, are the same as, or not
materially different from, those of the disabled person.
