2 Disability Disability Discrimination (b) to ensure, as far as practicable, that persons with disabilities have the same rights to equality before the law as the rest of the community; and (c) to promote recognition and acceptance within the community of the principle that persons with disabilities have the same fundamental rights as the rest of the community. The University applies the DDA (Part 1.4) definition of Disability, as follows: (a) total or partial loss of the person s bodily or mental functions; or (b) total or partial loss of a part of the body; or (c) the presence in the body of organisms causing disease or illness; or (d) the presence in the body of organisms capable of causing disease or illness; or (e) the malfunction, malformation or disfigurement of a part of the person s body; or (f) a disorder or malfunction that results in the person learning differently from a person without the disorder or malfunction; or (g) a disorder, illness or disease that affects a person s thought processes, perception of reality, emotions or judgment or that results in disturbed behaviour; and includes a disability that: (h) presently exists; or (i) previously existed but no longer exists; or (j) may exist in the future; or (k) is imputed to a person. The University applies the DDA (Part 1.5) definition of Direct Discrimination, as follows: A person (discriminator) discriminates against another person (aggrieved person) on the ground of a disability of the aggrieved person if, because of the aggrieved person s disability, the discriminator treats or proposes to treat the aggrieved person less favourably than, in circumstances that are the same or are not materially different, the discriminator treats or would treat a person without the disability. The University applies the DDA (Part 1.6) definition of Indirect Discrimination, as follows: A person (discriminator) discriminates against another person (aggrieved person) on the ground of a disability of the aggrieved person if the discriminator requires the aggrieved person to comply with a requirement or condition: (a) with which a substantially higher proportion of persons without the disability comply or are able to comply; and (b) which is not reasonable having regard to the circumstances of the case; and (c) with which the aggrieved person does not or is not able to comply.
3 Inherent Requirements Implications of Disability Public Health and Safety Reasonable Adjustments Universal Access Unjustifiable Hardship The mandatory, not negotiable, components specific to a position of employment or educational program to be undertaken by a person. A decision may be taken adverse to a person with a disability if the disability is likely to prevent the person from meeting the inherent requirements of a position of employment or of participation in an educational program. The measurable affects of a person s disability on participation in University life. A decision may be taken adverse to a person with disability if the implications of the disability make it necessary in order to protect the health and/or safety of the person with a disability and/or others. The alterations or modifications that are able to be provided so as to alleviate the implications of disability, after due consideration is given to inherent requirements and academic integrity. The inclusion of all features required to enable access for people with disability to University cultural and physical environment, information and study. In determining what constitutes unjustifiable hardship (DDA Part 1.11), all relevant circumstances of the particular case are to be taken into account including: (a) the nature of the benefit or detriment likely to accrue or be suffered by any persons concerned; and (b) the effect of the disability of a person concerned; and (c) the financial circumstances and the estimated amount of expenditure required to be made by the person claiming unjustifiable hardship; and (d) in the case of the provision of services, or the making available of facilities - an action plan given to the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission under Section Policy Maker 6 Policy Provisions 6.1 General Principles The University accepts that it has a legal obligation to eliminate disability discrimination from its structures and practices in accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act The University has a moral and ethical commitment to equal opportunity in education and employment for people with disability The University is committed to a strategy of universal access, whereby all of its stakeholders share responsibility for inclusion of people with disability.
