Disability discrimination:Reasonable adjustments and employer's knowledge of disability [UK]

The Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) has confirmed that the duty to make reasonable adjustments under disability discrimination law did not apply where the employer did not know...that the employee in question was disabled...In the case of Wilcox v Birmingham CAB Services Limited, Ms Wilcox was employed as a Debt Advice Caseworker by Birmingham CAB Services Limited ("CAB”), which provides advice at six sites in Birmingham. In 2006, the CAB renegotiated its Debt Advisers’ terms so that Advisers were paid less and could be required to work at any of the sites. Ms Wilcox agreed to the new terms under protest. Ms Wilcox decided that she could no longer afford car parking charges which she paid when at the City Centre site. In early 2007, she asked to work closer to home so she would not need to pay to park. At the time, she informed her employer that she could not use public transport because travelling made her anxious.
