More and more employers are requiring their staff to return to the office on a full time or hybrid basis.

If you are disabled and being adversely affected through working at the office, you might consider making a request for a reasonable adjustment.

Disabled employees and workers have additional rights and protections in the workplace through the Equality Act 2010. Such rights are protections are clearly needed as recent studies have identified that almost half of disabled people in employment consider they have suffered in the workplace because of their disability.
Unfortunately, public perceptions of what is and is not a disability can lead to misunderstandings about who is protected under the Equality Act 2010. I often speak to people who are struggling at work because of a physical or mental condition and did not know they had rights and protections available to them.
