IN DC Metro: Supporting Employees with Disabilities Who Use Assistive Technology
Various disability legislation exists to ensure employees with disabilities (EWD) have equal access to perform core job functions, from the hiring process to the use of all internal systems and communication within an enterprise, which include requests for accommodation, training and Helpdesk support. While there have been great advances in Assistive Technology (AT) for persons with disabilities providing greater access to IT systems and electronic documents, providing seamless support to the employee with a disability to ensure equal access, can be daunting for enterprises. Ensuring equal access requires extensive planning, support, and continual monitoring. Based on its decades-long experience working in enterprise environments with EWD, management and Helpdesk support, iYellow Access is presenting a series of webinars to help enterprises understand the expertise and processes needed to fully support their employees with disabilities.
