Disability Discrimination: Can "Treating Everyone The Same" Go Wrong?
Commercial awareness for regional and high street law, by the people doing it.

Need to know
Disabled employees do not realise they are protected under the Equality Act 2010.
Disability discrimination is not always about someone being treated badly because they are disabled, sometimes the problem’s that an employer treats everyone the same.
Welcome to TSL’s Weekly Edge, whether you’re aiming for a regional or high-street practice, or just want to get a feel for how law works in the real world beyond textbooks, you’re in the right place.
No corporate jargon, no massive deals, just real useful information designed to give you that extra edge in your legal journey.
🧠Wilson’s Weekly Wisdom
When we think about learning, we often picture textbooks, revision notes or hours spent reading. But learning doesn’t always look like that.
A webinar, workshop, podcast, or even a conversation with someone more experienced can teach you lessons that no book can. As a law student or junior lawyer, every opportunity to learn adds to your knowledge and confidence.
So this week, don’t measure your progress by the number of pages you’ve read. Measure it by what you’ve learned, the questions you’ve asked, and the new perspectives you’ve gained.
