Disability Definition
The Equality Act 2010 states “A person has a disability if they have a physical or mental impairment, which has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.”
The Act goes on to state “A person can also qualify if s/he had a disability in the past and/or if s/he was on the register of disabled persons under provisions in the Disabled Persons (Employment) Act 1944 on both 12 January 1995 and 2 December 1996”.
