Proving or disproving disability

Amy Stroud considers some of the issues concerning the operation of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010, particularly around mental impairment, that have arisen in the Employment Appeal Tribunal in recent times.

As the effects of the pandemic take their toll, what do claimants and respondents need to look out for when bringing or resisting a claim of disability discrimination in tribunal? 

Amy also looks briefly at the procedural pitfalls surrounding the use of expert evidence and discusses the implications these have for the employer and employee planning litigation.
