IP Inclusive Midlands Network and IP Ability are delighted to invite you to a seminar focusing on reasonable adjustments for disabled people in the IP sector, including adjustments required because of changes to work as a result of Covid-19. The seminar will be hosted by Kerry Russell at Shakespeare Martineau, who will be joined by three speakers:
Ewan Carr, an employment lawyer at Shakespeare Martineau will discuss an employer’s legal obligations under the Equality Act;
Fran Worrall, HR Manager at Marks and Clerk will talk about practical examples of putting reasonable adjustments into practice; and
Natasha Hirst, journalist and disability researcher from the 'Legally Disabled' project at Cardiff University will discuss the experiences of lawyers who have requested reasonable adjustments in the legal sector.
At the end of the session there will be an opportunity to ask questions and share experiences.
We hope you can join us. Please register for this event either using the link on this page, or if you would prefer, please email [email protected]. A link to join the seminar will be sent to you a few days before the event date.
