What are my rights in the workplace?
Disability is a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010. This means it’s against the law for employers to discriminate against you on the grounds of your disability.
You’re entitled to request reasonable adjustments at work, and at job interviews, to accommodate your disability.
Important to know: The Equality Act 2010 has a definition of disability, and you’re only protected if you meet the criteria set out in this definition.
