Unreasonable adjustments

My sister has a language disorder. (DLD). She went to special school. She work in admin for nhs and her manager is saying that she has to answer the phone. She's part of a team and this is only a small part of the role dealing with any enquiries. I think most are by email now. She really struggles on the phone but HR are saying that it is not a reasonable adjustment for her not to answer the phone. I feel this is discrimination against her disability? Can we say this to them?

@JenniferAllisonPhillipaSue please stop using my username and choose another one. I am an HR advisor and also a disabled person who trains organisations on disability and I do not want my advice confused with yours when I am using this board. Great song choice though.

I’m not above post stalking (I’m petty like that) so I’ve checked 😀

@JenniferAlisonPhilipaSue you first started using this username on 01/03/2022.

@JenniferAllisonPhillipaSue started using it on 05/06/2021.

So it’s you who are using her username & you who should change 😂
