"The Provincial Accessibility Committee developed recommendations on draft standards that will remove and prevent barriers that restrict people with disabilities from equally participating in the workforce and accessing services in the community. This document provides a summary of Provincial Accessibility Committee’s proposed recommendations for the Accessible Service Delivery Standard and Employment Accessibility Standard. The recommendations for the Accessible Service Delivery Standard are focused on addressing barriers both in the physical and virtual environment to ensure that events, activities, advice and the process of buying goods are provided in accessible ways. The recommendations for the Employment Accessibility Standard aim to identify, remove and prevent barriers in hiring, training and retention. The proposed standards are informed by accessibility standards provisions, laws and regulations in other communities, and existing B.C. provincial laws and regulations. Each proposed standard has been grouped into three main thematic areas."
