Accessibility Standards

    Accessibility Standards Plan/Policy (Ontario)

    Multimatic is committed to treating all people in a way that allows them to maintain their dignity and independence.

    We believe in integration and equal opportunity. We are also committed to meeting the needs of people with disabilities in a timely manner, and will do so by preventing and removing barriers to accessibility and meeting the requirements under the
    Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act.

    Accessible Emergency Information: Multimatic is committed to providing customers and clients with emergency information that is available to the public in an accessible way upon request. We will also provide employees with disabilities with individualized emergency response information where applicable and with the employee’s consent.

    Training: Multimatic will provide training to employees on Ontario’s accessibility laws and on the Human Rights Code as it relates to people with disabilities.
    Training will be provided in a way that best suits the duties of employees.
    We take the steps to ensure employees are provided with training by:

    • Developing training materials that are suited to the duties of employees.
    • Integrating the required training into our new employee orientation programs.
    • Reviewing the required information with employees during regularly scheduled employee communication meetings.

     

    Employment: Multimatic is committed to treating all people in a way that allows them to maintain their dignity and independence. Multimatic believes in integration and equal opportunity. We are committed to meeting the needs of people with disabilities in a timely manner. We will do so by preventing and removing barriers to accessibility and meeting accessibility requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (“AODA”).

    Multimatic will meet its commitment to ensuring that our recruitment, advancement, performance management and other employment programs, practices and policies are fair, accessible and inclusive of persons with disabilities, and are provided to all employees and prospective employees in a manner that is free from discrimination.

    We will continue to follow our internal Fair Hiring Practices procedure, our Non-Discrimination and Workplace Harassment Policy, our Job Opportunities (job posting) Procedure and our Modified Work (return-to-work) Program. We will ensure that employees are knowledgeable of these policies and procedures, including where to access them. These policies and procedures will be made available in a manner that considers an employee’s disability, upon request.

    We will consider accessibility barriers when designing, planning or modifying future and current facilities. We will adhere to the minimum Accessibility Standards for the development or re-development of public spaces.
