The Company has the Human Resources department actively managing the accessibility plan. No external reports or feedback have been provided. Internal parties and employee suggestions have identified progress areas. Feedback is reviewed by HR to develop progressive solutions. An anonymous survey was issued to employees for further insights. Barriers were prioritized based on safety risks, logistical/budgetary challenges, and new discoveries.
The Company collaborated with FAIM through the Mullen Group. FAIM reviewed a draft of the Accessibility Plan and facilitated in-person conversations with persons with disabilities. These consultations addressed physical, attitudinal, technological, and communication barriers, and gathered recommendations for improving policies, procedures, events, and activities.
