O'Hanlon v Commissioners for HM Revenue & Customs [2007] EWCA Civ 283 CA
disability discrimination | duty to make reasonable adjustments | sick pay
The Court of Appeal has held that failing to
pay a disabled employee full pay when on sick leave will not normally breach the
duty to make reasonable adjustments.
HM Revenue & Customs offers six
months' full pay in any period of 12 months to all employees who are absent from
work on the grounds of health, followed by six months on half pay, up to a
maximum of 12 months in any period of four years.
