ACAS has published a new guide Disability discrimination: key points for the workplace.

The guide at www.acas.org.uk/index.aspx?articleid=5566 offers employers, senior managers, line managers, HR personnel, employees, employee/trade union representatives and job applicants a grounding into how disability discrimination can occur in the workplace, how it can be dealt with and how to reduce the chance of future discrimination.

This is not statutory guidance like the EHRC Codes of Practice and ODI guidance on meaning of disability. For Equality Act guidance generally, see EqA Codes of Practice and Guidance.
