Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)

Since the 1st October 2004 all companies both large and small have to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. Forward thinking firms have embraced this legislation having identified that a huge marketplace exists that hitherto has been ignored. In an ageing population this sector is sure to grow.

The Code of Practice linked to the Disability Discrimination Act states that what is 'reasonable' depends on a number of factors such as:

• the type of service provided
• the nature, size and resources of the provider
• the effect of the disability on the service user
• the financial, practical and disruption implications of steps taken

We will guide you to follow best practice ever mindful of the need to keep spending down to a minimum. Please call if you wish to discuss DDA further.
