The Federal Court’s decision in Sklavos undermines the protections afforded by the Disability Discrimination Act. Urgent reform is needed to ensure people with disability can obtain reasonable adjustments. Sign on to a letter to the Attorney-General: bit.ly/3bgBsOT
Take advantage of this opportunity...
