Schedule 8: Code of Good Practice: Dismissal
11. Guidelines in cases of dismissal arising from ill health or injury

Any person determining whether a dismissal arising from ill health or injury is unfair should consider-

1. whether or not the employee is capable of performing the work; and

2. if the employee is not capable-

1. the extent to which the employee is able to perform the work;

2. the extent to which the employee's work circumstances might be adapted to accommodate disability, or, where this is not possible, the extent to which the employee's duties might be adapted; and

3. the availability of any suitable alternative work.
