Employment Standard
Recruitment,
assessment or selection process
23. (2) If a selected
applicant requests an accommodation, the employer shall consult with the
applicant and provide or arrange for the provision of a suitable accommodation
in a manner that takes into account the applicant’s accessibility needs due to
disability.
What does it look like for you
to check yes to this question??
NOTICE TO SUCCESSFUL APPLICANTS
When making offers of employment, all
employers must notify the successful applicant of their policies for
accommodating persons with disabilities.
INFORMING EMPLOYEES OF SUPPORTS
Employers will be required to inform their
employees of its policies, as well as the updates to such policies, to support
employees with disabilities, including information regarding job accommodations
that take into account an employee’s accessibility needs due to disability. New
employees are to receive this information as soon as practicable after they
commence employment.
I believe that this is necessary
for some but a benefit for all. Can you
think of ways this may help you access information about employment?
Is there anything else that could be done to ensure that a compliance with this requirement?
