Breaking down barriers so that everyone’s welcome.
Making private facilities and spaces accessible to persons with disabilities is the law and the right thing to do. It is also good for business. Everyone benefits When you create a more inclusive environment.
Upholding the right of equal access.
Many private businesses still face compliance challenges.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed in 1990 to protect the rights of individuals with disabilities and ensure they have equal access to public accommodations. Today, many private businesses still face compliance challenges in making their facilities accessible to all.
Title III of the ADA requires businesses and other places of public accommodation to be accessible to people with disabilities, which means removing architectural barriers in existing buildings and ensuring that new construction meets accessibility standards. In addition, businesses must provide reasonable accommodations for employees with disabilities, such as making modifications to the workplace or providing assistive technology.
A lack of understanding of the ADA and its requirements is a common problem. Many business owners are unaware of the specific accessibility standards that apply to their commercial properties or events. Others may be aware of the requirements but face challenges in implementing them due to cost or logistical considerations.
Inclusion is good for business.
Everyone benefits from accessible environments that welcome all.
Making private sector facilities and spaces accessible to persons with disabilities is the right thing to do and makes good business sense. When you make your facilities accessible, you’re opening up your business to an expanded group of potential customers, creating growth opportunities.
People with disabilities have spending power and are looking for companies that cater to them. By being accessible, you’re letting them know that you’re open to their business.
Inclusion is good for society and good for business. When you create an inclusive environment, everyone can benefit from it. Employees with disabilities feel valued and supported, while customers appreciate knowing that they’re welcome.
