Following on from my earlier post on reasonable adjustments, there has been a recent EAT case concerning what is a reasonable adjustment in the workplace.
In the case of Dyer v London Ambulance NHS Trust, the employee had a potentially life-threatening reaction to aerosols and perfume and answered 999 calls in a busy control room. The EAT agreed with the Employment Tribunal that no adjustments could reasonably be made to the workplace for that employee as the risks could not be addressed effectively by a policy banning aerosols and perfume.
