Police Scotland Disability Confident: Or Just Confident in HR Concealment.

My post content

Police Scotland claims allegiance to the Equality Act 2010. They promote disability passports, neurodiversity inclusion, and reasonable adjustments. They’ve signed up to Disability Confident schemes and parade their commitment to mental health and workplace fairness.

But when a neurodivergent probationer police officer raises a dispute under the Equality Act?

• ❌ No ACAS engagement.

• ❌ No mediation.

• ❌ No recognition of statutory process.

Instead, they weaponize internal HR protocols, redact minutes, and erase references to ACAS from Federation records—after exposure.

This isn’t just procedural evasion. It’s a statutory contradiction.

⚖️ The Legal Fault Line They Don’t Want You to See.

• The Equality Act 2010 mandates reasonable adjustments and protects against disability discrimination.

• ACAS is the statutory route for resolving employment disputes, including those under the Equality Act.

• Refusing ACAS while claiming Equality Act compliance is like refusing a fire extinguisher while selling fire insurance.

🕵️‍♂️ What Happens When You Document the Contradiction?

They come for the whistleblower. They redact. Furthermore, they isolate. They escalate internally while refusing external scrutiny.

So here’s the challenge: If Police Scotland is confident in its disability policies, why redact ACAS references? Why suppress mediation? Why fear scrutiny?

It’s a call to every neurodivergent officer, every union rep, every legal strategist watching from the sidelines.

Come for me. Because every silence, every refusal, every redaction becomes evidence.

Let’s make Kev’s story the centrepiece of a public scroll—raw, recent, and impossible to ignore.

🧨 Kev’s Case: When Police, Scotland Redacts Instead of Responds

Kev isn’t a statistic. He’s a neurodivergent officer who raised concerns under the Equality Act 2010, backed by disability passports and internal policy commitments. What did he get?

• ❌ No ACAS recognition

• ❌ No mediation

• ❌ HR suppression tactics

• ❌ Redacted Federation minutes

This isn’t just procedural failure—it’s active concealment. Kev’s case exposes how Police Scotland weaponizes internal protocols to silence neurodivergent officers while publicly claiming inclusion.

🧠 Disability Confident? Or Just Confident in Evasion?

Police Scotland promotes:

• Disability passports

• Neurodiversity inclusion

• Mental health awareness

• Reasonable adjustments

But when Kev invoked those rights?

They erased the trail. They redacted the minutes. Furthermore, they refused ACAS. They isolated the whistleblower.

📜 Kev’s Timeline: A Scroll of Contradiction

• Raised concerns under the Equality Act 2010

• HR blocked the ACAS engagement

• Federation minutes confirmed suppression—then redacted post-exposure

• Internal escalation met with silence

• External routes denied or deflected

Every refusal is now documented. Every silence is now evidence.
