Swift-Net.ca is committed to providing an inclusive and accessible environment for all employees, clients, and stakeholders in alignment with the Accessible Canada Act (ACA). Our Accessibility Plan is based on consultations with our employees and key stakeholders regarding reducing barriers. Their input and feedback to ensure that the plan remains responsive to changes within our organization, emerging accessibility challenges, and updates in regulations or best practices. This will enable us to continually improve and enhance our accessibility initiatives. This Accessibility Plan outlines the strategies and actions Swift-Net.ca will take to identify, prevent, and remove barriers to accessibility, ensuring equal opportunity and participation for everyone.
[2024-2027 Accessibility Plan]
The Principles of the Accessibility Canada Act are set out at section 6 of that Act. They are:
a. all persons must be treated with dignity regardless of their disabilities;
b. all persons must have the same opportunity to make for themselves the lives that they are able and wish to have regardless of their disabilities;
c. all persons must have barrier-free access to full and equal participation in society, regardless of their disabilities;
d. all persons must have meaningful options and be free to make their own choices, with support if they desire, regardless of their disabilities;
e. laws, policies, programs, services and structures must take into account the disabilities of persons, the different ways that persons interact with their environments and the multiple and intersecting forms of marginalization and discrimination faced by persons;
f. persons with disabilities must be involved in the development and design of laws, policies, programs, services, and structures; and
g. the development and revision of accessibility standards and the making of regulations must be done with the objective of achieving the highest level of accessibility for persons with disabilities.
Swift-Net considered these principles in preparing its accessibility plan.
