# Reasonable Adjustments Policy

'Reasonable adjustments' refer to changes to workplaces procedures or practices that are put in place to avoid a situation where a person with disabilities is disadvantaged compared to one without.

The Alan Turing Institute is committed to creating an inclusive, barrier-free workplace, recognising that providing reasonable adjustments is essential to supporting colleagues in fully participating in their roles.
A summary of the Institute's reasonable adjustment policy can be found [here](https://www.turing.ac.uk/reasonable-adjustments-policy),
with the full policy available for internal staff on [Mathison](https://thealanturininstitute.sharepoint.com/sites/gc/Public%20Documents/Corporate%20Governance/Policies/People%20Policies/Reasonable%20Adjustment%20Policy%20Final.pdf).

The policy outlines the Institute’s legal obligations and emphasises a proactive approach to making reasonable adjustments, considering each request carefully even if it falls outside of the legal requirements as outlined in the Equality Act 2010.
