Re: Disabled rights to be strengthened? Let's hope so!
It is all very well various groups demanding special rights and priveledges but the fact is that most people operate in commercial environments where such rights actually cost someone else time and money.

That cost doesnt go away.

If someone thinks they have or are granted a right to disappear from work to do something else then;

(a) do they expect to still be paid for the time they are away?

(b) who foots the bill for lost production?

(c) who does the work whilst that person is away?

Speaking for my own work environment, If i have to provide work cover for a person who is off sick,i get paid a proportion of their salary (pro rata) and they loose it. Simple as that.

It seems like the only people in this country who do not have any special claim to "rights" and "benefits" are the ordinary caucasian,heterosexual,long suffering,non complaining male.

Genuine cases excepted of course and all usual disclaimers apply.
