Employment agencies
21.(1) It is unlawful for an employment agency to discriminate against a
person on the ground of the person's disability or a disability of any of the
person's associates:

   (a)  by refusing to provide the person with any of its services; or

   (b)  in the terms or conditions on which it offers to provide the person
        with any of its services; or

   (c)  in the manner in which it provides the person with any of its
        services.

(2) This section does not render it unlawful for an employment agency to
discriminate against a person on the ground of the person's disability, if
taking into account the person's past training, qualifications and experience
relevant to the work sought, and all other relevant factors that it is
reasonable to take into account, the person because of his or her disability,
would be unable to carry out the inherent requirements of the work sought.
