Recommendation 42
42
Paragraph: 152
Disabled people, particularly young disabled people, face significant barriers to upholding their workplace rights.
Conclusion
Disabled people, particularly young disabled people, face significant barriers to upholding their workplace rights. The current enforcement mechanisms fail to uphold these rights in a way that supports disabled claimants to remain in work and do not incentivise employers to respect the rights of their disabled employees. We therefore welcome the Government’s commitment to introducing a Single Enforcement Body and to reforming the Employment Tribunal to simplify the claims process, extend deadlines, and reduce delays.
