Understanding Unconscious Bias
Creating Inclusive Work Environments
Welcome employers! Ensuring accessibility in the workplace is not just a legal obligation, it’s a step toward fostering diversity and creating an inclusive environment that benefits everyone. We have gathered a few resources to help you in this journey.
- The Great Lakes ADA Center provides information, materials, technical assistance, and training on the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). Topics addressed include the non-discrimination requirements in employment, the obligations of state and local governments and business to ensure that programs, services, and activities are readily accessible to and usable by people with disabilities.
- Disability:IN is a nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion worldwide. Their network of over 400 corporations expands opportunities for people with disability across enterprises. Their central office and 25 affiliates serve as the collective voice to effect change for people with disabilities in business.
- Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) is a resource through the US Dept. of Labor that encourages the creation, use, and promotion of accessible technology to increase the employment, retention, and professional growth of individuals with disabilities.
