Equity is everyone's individual needs are considered and everyone gets exactly what they need, no more and no less.  So at a school the kid with the learning disability gets extra attention.

Both are just ideals to aim at.  Any system that lasts more than a day will have some inequality and some inequity.

Right.  It makes sense when you think about schools but not when you think about jobs.  The problem is, the left often views work the way normal people view school. The left thinks of good jobs the way normal people think of admission slots in a good college.  In a very limited sense, some jobs should be making accomodations and trainings for workers who need it, but mandates for that kind of thing usually aren't called for.
