Disabled in Britain - Still at the Sharp End of Discrimination?
For people with disabilities, getting a job means escaping from a lifetime of living on benefits. It's also a vital way of giving them independence and a feeling of self-esteem. But there's widespread evidence that they are frustrated in their hopes of a job by systematic prejudice and discrimination. And they complain that the legal safety nets that should ensure a fair deal are inadequate and fail to be enforced.
Public Eye reveals the extent of the prejudice employers have against people with disabilities and asks: why is tackling this discrimination such a low priority?
