Appointment of a person with a disability or an employee who develops a disability

The Manager/Headteacher appointing a person with a disability, or who is responsible for an employee who develops a disability, must ensure an assessment is made of the adjustments and support they will need in order to carry out their role.

Buckinghamshire Council has produced a Reasonable Adjustment Toolkit, which provides additional information and guidance for employees and their managers and will assist with the assessment process. If employees would like to request an assistive software, they can start this process by completing the Reasonable Adjustment form on Service Now.
