The government of Ontario passed the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) with the intention of making the province fully accessible by 2025.

The legislation is being implemented in five portions (known as "Standards") and has different requirements and deadlines for different types and sizes of organizations. 

Small private sector organizations (between 1-49 employees), should be aware that the deadline for the following requirements is coming up soon... January 1st, 2015:
  • Policies related to the Integrated Accessibility Standard Regulation must be in place
  • Demonstrate you have considered accessibility when buying or designing self-serve kiosks (if applicable)
  • Ensuring that educational and training resources are accessible (if applicable)
  • Train educators on accessibility awareness (if applicable)
  • Create accessible or conversion-ready versions of textbooks (if applicable)

Large private sector organizations (50 or more employees) need to meet the January 1st, 2015 deadline for the following requirements:
  • Train your staff and volunteers on the Integrated Accessibility Standard Regulation
  • Policies related to how you will accommodate persons with disabilities during the Return-To-Work process must be in place
  • Accessible feedback processes for customers must be in place
  • Create accessible or conversion-ready versions of textbooks (if applicable)
You can also contact us with your questions at anna@clearpathemployer.com or (519) 624-0800. We look forward to hearing from you.

We'd love to connect with you!
