Ms L Omokheoa v HMX Media Ltd: 2202197/2020
JUDGMENT
[1]The Claimant was a person with a disability.[2]The Respondent did not know and could not reasonably have been expected to know that her impairment amounted to a disability.[3]The Respondent did reduce the Claimant’s workload after she handed in her notice on 10 February 2020 but this did not amount to direct disability discrimination.[4]In any event, the reduction in workload was a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.[5]The Respondent did apply the PCP of working from the office.[6]The duty to make reasonable adjustments did not arise and the adjustment of working from home would not in any event have been a reasonable one.[7]Accordingly, the disability discrimination claims are not well-founded and are dismissed.[8]The Respondent owes the Claimant for 9.5 days’ SSP in the total sum of £179.08.
