Workers with Disabilities by Michelle Ni Longain, Partner in BCM Hanby Wallace

Employers in Ireland are increasingly faced with issues in respect of workers who are disabled within the meaning of our employment equality law, perhaps unknown to the employer and possibly even to the worker. A lack of awareness of the breadth of our definition of disability for employment equality law purposes, the protection that the law gives to workers and the obligations imposed upon employers creates significant legal liability. This can result in substantial awards of damages and orders that require employers to introduce new policies and practices and even to appoint unsuccessful candidates to positions, with retrospective effect. This Paper discusses these issues.

Michelle Ní Longáin is a regular speaker at, among others, The Law Society's Law School and Law Society's CPD programme. She is co-author of The Law Society's Employment Law Manual and Discrimination Law Manual.
