The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act of 2005 requires that all private sector employers meet “Accessibility Standards for Customer Service.” Specifically, these standards have four main requirements:
2) Additionally, provide “accessibility” training to staff that deals with the public as well as to internal policy makers who participate in developing the business’ policies regarding access to the goods and services by the public;
4) Moreover, provide a public notice of any temporary disruptions that affect access to goods or services by disabled persons.
LET US DO THE TRAINING
The Occupational Health & Safety professionals at Dental Practice Safety will provide quality training for your employees right at your workplace, thereby taking a significant responsibility off your to-do list.
Our lively and interactive program thus uses lecture, video, group discussion, and case study/problem solving to engage participants and ensure their thorough understanding.
Consequently, your employees will learn how to accommodate disabled customers and clients with respect and sensitivity.
This training program takes 2 to 2.5 hours, depending on the number of participants and discussion time.
