Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Disability Discrimination
Hi! I have a case referred to me at this time which is complicated and would
be interested in others opinions with regards to the potential unlawful
discrimination under DDA of a wife, whose ability at work is being affected as
she is the sole carer of a husband with Bi Polar disorder.
I have been quoted the Coleman & Attridge case 2006 where a similar appeal
was won by the claimant. If this case sets a precedent, then as OHA's we
need to assess the whole family with regards to any potential DDA
assessment.
Has anyone else experienced this situation? And just how detailed should we
be "digging" in cases like this? Your experiene shared would be most helpful.
Please reply to my personal email address. Regards, Sue
