520 _aRecent case law has increased the obligation of employers and service providers to accommodate disabled people?s needs. SCA Packaging Ltd v Doyle, [2009] UKHL 37, has opened the doors to many more people qualifying for protection under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. Mayor and Burgesses of Lewisham LBC v Malcolm, [2008] UKHL 43 (L144352) went against much of the established case law on disability-related discrimination claims, making such claims harder to pursue. Fareham College Corporation v Walters, [2009] UKEAT 0396_08_1405, held that the college?s failure to make reasonable adjustments to avoid dismissing W rendered the dismissal itself an act of discrimination.
