Meaning of “discrimination” and “harassment”

3A Meaning of “discrimination”

1 For the purposes of this Part, a person discriminates against a disabled person if—
a for a reason which relates to the disabled person’s disability, he treats him less favourably than he treats or would treat others to whom that reason does not or would not apply, and
b he cannot show that the treatment in question is justified.
2 For the purposes of this Part, a person also discriminates against a disabled person if he fails to comply with a duty to make reasonable adjustments imposed on him in relation to the disabled person.
3 Treatment is justified for the purposes of subsection (1)(b) if, but only if, the reason for it is both material to the circumstances of the particular case and substantial.
4 But treatment of a disabled person cannot be justified under subsection (3) if it amounts to direct discrimination falling within subsection (5).
5 A person directly discriminates against a disabled person if, on the ground of the disabled person’s disability, he treats the disabled person less favourably than he treats or would treat a person not having that particular disability whose relevant circumstances, including his abilities, are the same as, or not materially different from, those of the disabled person.
6 If, in a case falling within subsection (1), a person is under a duty to make reasonable adjustments in relation to a disabled person but fails to comply with that duty, his treatment of that person cannot be justified under subsection (3) unless it would have been justified even if he had complied with that duty.

3B Meaning of “harassment”

1 For the purposes of this Part, a person subjects a disabled person to harassment where, for a reason which relates to the disabled person’s disability, he engages in unwanted conduct which has the purpose or effect of—
a violating the disabled person’s dignity, or
b creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for him.
2 Conduct shall be regarded as having the effect referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of subsection (1) only if, having regard to all the circumstances, including in particular the perception of the disabled person, it should reasonably be considered as having that effect.

3 It is also unlawful for an employer, in relation to employment by him, to subject to harassment –
a a disabled person whom he employs; or
b a disabled person who has applied to him for employment.
4 Subsection (2) does not apply to benefits of any description if the employer is concerned with the provision (whether or not for payment) of benefits of that description to the public, or to a section of the public which includes the employee in question, unless –
a that provision differs in a material respect from the provision of the benefits by the employer to his employees;
b the provision of the benefits to the employee in question is regulated by his contract of employment; or
c the benefits relate to training.
5 The reference in subsection (2)(d) to the dismissal of a person includes a reference –
a to the termination of that person’s employment by the expiration of any period (including a period expiring by reference to an event or circumstance), not being a termination immediately after which the employment is renewed on the same terms; and
b to the termination of that person’s employment by any act of his (including the giving of notice) in circumstances such that he is entitled to terminate it without notice by reason of the conduct of the employer.

E6618B Reasonable adjustments: supplementary

1 In determining whether it is reasonable for a person to have to take a particular step in order to comply with a duty to make reasonable adjustments, regard shall be had, in particular, to—
a the extent to which taking the step would prevent the effect in relation to which the duty is imposed;
b the extent to which it is practicable for him to take the step;
c the financial and other costs which would be incurred by him in taking the step and the extent to which taking it would disrupt any of his activities;
d the extent of his financial and other resources;
e the availability to him of financial or other assistance with respect to taking the step;
f the nature of his activities and the size of his undertaking;
g where the step would be taken in relation to a private household, the extent to which taking it would—
i disrupt that household, or
ii disturb any person residing there.

I8E7220  Meaning of “discrimination”

1 For the purposes of section 19, a provider of services discriminates against a disabled person if —
a for a reason which relates to the disabled person's disability, he treats him less favourably than he treats or would treat others to whom that reason does not or would not apply; and
b he cannot show that the treatment in question is justified.
2 For the purposes of section 19, a provider of services also discriminates against a disabled person if —
a he fails to comply with a section 21 duty imposed on him in relation to the disabled person; and
b he cannot show that his failure to comply with that duty is justified.
3 For the purposes of this section, treatment is justified only if—
a in the opinion of the provider of services, one or more of the conditions mentioned in subsection (4) are satisfied; and
b it is reasonable, in all the circumstances of the case, for him to hold that opinion.
4 The conditions are that—
a in any case, the treatment is necessary in order not to endanger the health or safety of any person (which may include that of the disabled person);

a remove the feature;
b alter it so that it no longer has that effect;
c provide a reasonable means of avoiding the feature; or
d provide a reasonable alternative method of making the service in question available to disabled persons.
3 Regulations may prescribe—
a matters which are to be taken into account in determining whether any provision of a kind mentioned in subsection (2)(c) or (d) is reasonable; and
b categories of providers of services to whom subsection (2) does not apply.
C13C144 Where an auxiliary aid or service (for example, the provision of information on audio tape or of a sign language interpreter) would—
a enable disabled persons to make use of a service which a provider of services provides, or is prepared to provide, to members of the public, or
b facilitate the use by disabled persons of such a service,
it is the duty of the provider of that service to take such steps as it is reasonable, in all the circumstances of the case, for him to have to take in order to provide that auxiliary aid or service.
5 Regulations may make provision, for the purposes of this section—
a as to circumstances in which it is reasonable for a provider of services to have to take steps of a prescribed description;

7 Nothing in this section requires a provider of services to take any steps which would cause him to incur expenditure exceeding the prescribed maximum.
8 Regulations under subsection (7) may provide for the prescribed maximum to be calculated by reference to—
a aggregate amounts of expenditure incurred in relation to different cases;
b prescribed periods;
c services of a prescribed description;
d premises of a prescribed description; or
e such other criteria as may be prescribed.
9 Regulations may provide, for the purposes of subsection (7), for expenditure incurred by one provider of services to be treated as incurred by another.

d in a case falling within section 21F(2)(b), (3)(b), (c)(i) or (d)(i), (4)(b) or (5)(b) or (c), the treatment is necessary because the association would otherwise be unable to afford members, associates or guests of the association access to a benefit, facility or service;
e in a case falling within section 21F(2)(a), the difference between—

b to a contract settling a complaint to which section 17A(1) or 25(8) applies if the conditions regulating compromise contracts under this Schedule are satisfied in relation to the contract.
2 The conditions regulating compromise contracts under this Schedule are that –
a the contract must be in writing;
b the contract must relate to the particular complaint;
c the complainant must have received advice from a relevant independent adviser as to the terms and effect of the proposed contract and in particular its effect on his ability to pursue a complaint before an industrial tribunal;
d there must be in force, when the adviser gives the advice, a contract of insurance, or an indemnity provided for members of a profession or professional body, covering the risk of a claim by the complainant in respect of loss arising in consequence of the advice;
e the contract must identify the adviser; and
f the contract must state that the conditions regulating compromise contracts under this Schedule are satisfied.
3 A person is a relevant independent adviser for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(c) –
a if he is a qualified lawyer;
b if he is an officer, official, employee or member of an independent trade union who has been certified in writing by the trade union as competent to give advice and as authorised to do so on behalf of the trade union; F609. . .
c if he works at an advice centre (whether as an employee or a volunteer) and has been certified in writing by the centre as competent to give advice and as authorised to do so on behalf of the centre.; or
d if he is a person of a description specified in an order made by the Office.
4 But a person is not a relevant independent adviser for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(c) in relation to the complainant –
a if he is, is employed by or is acting in the matter for the other party or a person who is connected with the other party;
b in the case of a person within sub-paragraph (3)(b) or (c), if the trade union or advice centre is the other party or a person who is connected with the other party; or
c in the case of a person within sub-paragraph (3)(c), if the complainant makes a payment for the advice received from him.
5 In sub-paragraph (3)(a) “qualified lawyer” means a barrister (whether in practice as such or employed to give legal advice) or a solicitor who holds a practising certificate.
6 In sub-paragraph (3)(b) “independent trade union” has the same meaning as in the Industrial Relations (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 F611.
7 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)(a) any two persons are to be treated as connected –
a if one is a company of which the other (directly or indirectly) has control; or
b if both are companies of which a third person (directly or indirectly) has control.
8 An agreement under which the parties agree to submit a dispute to arbitration –
a shall be regarded for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(a) and (b) as being a contract settling a complaint if –
i the dispute is covered by a scheme having effect by virtue of an order under Article 84A of the Industrial Relations (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 F612, and
ii the agreement is to submit it to arbitration in accordance with the scheme; but
b shall be regarded as neither being nor including such a contract in any other case.
3
1 On the application of a disabled person interested in a contract to which paragraph 1(1) or (2) applies, a county court may make such order as it thinks fit for –
a removing or modifying any term rendered void by paragraph 1(1), or
b removing or modifying any term made unenforceable by paragraph 1(2);
but such an order shall not be made unless all persons affected have been given notice in writing of the application (except where under county court rules notice may be dispensed with) and have been afforded an opportunity to make representations to the court.
2 An order under sub-paragraph (1) may include provision as respects any period before the making of the order (but after the coming into operation of this Schedule).

PART II  collective agreements and rules of undertakings

4
1 This Part of this Schedule applies to –
a any term of a collective agreement, including an agreement which was not intended, or is presumed not to have been intended, to be a legally enforceable contract;
b any rule made by an employer for application to all or any of the persons who are employed by him or who apply to be, or are, considered by him for employment;
c any rule made by a trade organisation (within the meaning of section 13) or a qualifications body (within the meaning of section 14A) for application to –
i all or any of its members or prospective members; or
ii all or any of the persons on whom it has conferred authorisations or qualifications or who are seeking the authorisations or qualifications which it has power to confer.
2 Any term or rule to which this Part of this Schedule applies is void where –
a the making of the collective agreement is, by reason of the inclusion of the term, unlawful by virtue of this Part of this Act;
b the term or rule is included in furtherance of an act which is unlawful by virtue of this Part of this Act; or
c the term or rule provides for the doing of an act which is unlawful by virtue of this Part of this Act.
3 Sub-paragraph (2) applies whether the agreement was entered into, or the rule made, before or after the date on which this Schedule comes into operation; but in the case of an agreement entered into, or a rule made, before the date on which this Schedule comes into operation, that sub-paragraph does not apply in relation to any period before that date.
5A disabled person to whom this paragraph applies may present a complaint to an industrial tribunal that a term or rule is void by virtue of paragraph 4 if he has reason to believe –
a that the term or rule may at some future time have effect in relation to him; and
b where he alleges that it is void by virtue of paragraph 4(2)(c), that –
i an act for the doing of which it provides, may at some such time be done in relation to him, and
ii the act would be unlawful by virtue of this Part of this Act if done in relation to him in present circumstances.
6In the case of a complaint about –
a a term of a collective agreement made by or on behalf of –
i an employer,
ii an organisation of employers of which an employer is a member, or
iii an association of such organisations of one of which an employer is a member, or
b a rule made by an employer within the meaning of paragraph 4(1)(b),
paragraph 5 applies to any disabled person who is, or is genuinely and actively seeking to become, one of his employees.
7In the case of a complaint about a rule made by an organisation or body to which paragraph 4(1)(c) applies, paragraph 5 applies to any disabled person –
a who is, or is genuinely and actively seeking to become, a member of the organisation or body;
b on whom the organisation or body has conferred an authorisation or qualification; or
c who is genuinely and actively seeking an authorisation or qualification which the organisation or body has power to confer.
8
1 When an industrial tribunal finds that a complaint presented to it under paragraph 5 is well-founded the tribunal shall make an order declaring that the term or rule is void.
2 An order under sub-paragraph (1) may include provision as respects any period before the making of the order (but after the coming into operation of this Schedule).
9The avoidance by virtue of paragraph 4(2) of any term or rule which provides for any person to be discriminated against shall be without prejudice to the following rights (except in so far as they enable any person to require another person to be treated less favourably than himself), namely –
a such of the rights of the person to be discriminated against, and
b such of the rights of any person who will be treated more favourably in direct or indirect consequence of the discrimination,
as are conferred by or in respect of a contract made or modified wholly or partly in pursuance of, or by reference to, that term or rule.

PART III  interpretation

10In this Schedule “collective agreement” means any agreement relating to one or more of the matters mentioned in Article 96(1) of the Industrial Relations (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 (meaning of trade dispute), being an agreement made by or on behalf of one or more employers or one or more organisations of employers or associations of such organisations with one or more organisations of workers or associations of such organisations.
C5411Any reference in this Schedule to this Part of this Act shall be taken to include a reference to Part III of this Act, to the extent that it relates to—
a the provision of employment services; or
b the provision under a group insurance arrangement of facilities by way of insurance.
12Where a term to which section 26(1A)(c) applies is a term in an agreement which is not a contract, Part I of this Schedule shall have effect as if the agreement were a contract.

Prior to that repeal, different versions of this section had been created for N.I. and E.W.S. respectively to reflect the different amendment history for each jurisdiction. This version is based on the N.I. version as it stood at the date of the repeal. It does not reflect the history of E.W.S. effects prior to the 2010 repeal which can be found in earlier versions.
