SUMMARY:Associative disability and discrimination: exploring legal, study, employment, and welfare implications
UID:www.birmingham.ac.uk/211566
DESCRIPTION:This event is open to all participants.
 Disability is a ‘protected characteristic’ under UK law.  The term ‘associative’ disability, though, has developed through Courts and tribunals, in the employment context, but has a controversial history and current application.  Theoretically, the concept of associative disability applies to multiple situations both in, and beyond, employment but its application to some forms of discrimination - in particular indirect discrimination - is a matter of considerable debate.\n
 In this presentation, Dr Andy Noble and Dr Sarah Wall and discuss this concept in relation to both staff and student welfare and share recommendations for good practice.   \n
