[QUOTE="Spiral, post: 81953, member: 19371"] I must take issue with this statement, it is a wild over generalisation. Whilst I acknowledge it can be a bit like swimming against the tide if you have a disability, many people with disabilities have regular jobs and good attendence records and some of them even manage to hold down very well paid and responsible jobs. Thinking of my own workplace, I can identify several people living with disabilities and long term illnesses who have very good work records, these people include a senior manager. These conditions include cerebral pasly, visual impairment, an amputee, epilepsy, someone with a colostomy bag, skin cancer, several back problems and a few other conditions besides. I can also identify a few able bodied people who have regular time off work sick with colds, flu and tummy bugs. But I do agree that going the employment tribunal route is very very stressful.
