At the Disability Matters Committee this week I had the opportunity to engage with the Disability Federation of Ireland and Inclusion Ireland about the National Disability Inclusion Strategy (NDIS), including consideration of the impact of Covid-19 on people with disabilities and progress in implementing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD).

What is the extent of the reasonable accommodation and appropriate measures that an Irish employer is obliged to take for an employee with a disability? This video looks at section section 16 (3) and (4) of Employment Equality act 1998 to see what measures the employer must take. The case referred to in the video, Nano Nagle School -v- Daly, has been in the Labour Court, the High Court, the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court's decision is awaited as the video is being made. SUBSCRIBE? Help me reach 4,000 subscribers!

Whether you are in a health care or other professional environment or just having a personal conversation, consider these basic rules for communicating with a person with an intellectual disability.

Our campaign is about giving a voice to workers and service users who have been forgotten for too long by successive governments. Our members are focusing on five key issues where change is needed in the Sector. Firstly, there is a need to secure adequate and sustainable funding for the Sector. There is also a need for workers’ roles to be subject to a complete job evaluation, the development of a joint worker and management approach to policy formation as well as agreement on a protocol for the decongregation of residential settings and on educational opportunities for all Intellectual Disability workers.
