This publication examines the impact and operation of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 in the 10 years since it passed through Parliament. It is fair to say that many concerns were expressed by unions and disability groups when the DDA was first introduced. Those concerns were recorded in the first edition of this booklet, published in 2000. That report also raised suggestions for improvements in the Act, many of which have now been addressed through amendments to the original Act.

In 2003 the Institute of Employment Rights published a report entitled Achieving Equality at Work. In it, a number of leading equality experts critically examined the current framework of equality law and looked ahead to the possibility of improved and extended protection offered under the European Union Framework Directive on Employment Equality.
