Long Covid May Amount To A “Disability”

/in /by

There are certain conditions that automatically qualify as a disability as set out in the Equality Act 2010.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission has stated that Long Covid should not be a condition that automatically constitutes a disability.

However, if a person’s symptoms have a substantial and long term adverse effect on their ability to carry out normal day to day activities it might amount to a disability. This is the same statutory test for any condition/illness.

It is estimated that 1.8 million people in the UK are experiencing Long Covid symptoms. It is classified as Long Covid if Covid-19 symptoms last for more than four weeks.

If you suffer with a condition that amounts to a “disability” then you are afforded the full protection from disability discrimination.

For advice and representation on your right not be discriminated against in the work place contact Jennifer Carpenter, our specialist employment law solicitor.
