Aecon is committed to providing an accommodating environment to all individuals (employees and clients), whatever their ability, and ensuring all services are received in an accessible and timely manner. Aecon is also committed to maintaining current and effective processes by consulting with key stakeholders who will aide in the overall ability to enhance the accessibility to persons with disabilities.
Accessibility Policy
Aecon strives at all times to promote an equitable and diversified environment for our clients and employees. We believe in the importance of clearly defined, uniformly embraced values that guide the company in sustaining high quality and excellent service delivery. We are committed to meeting the objectives and requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (“AODA”) and the accessibility needs of persons with disabilities with respect to Aecon’s programs, services and facilities, in a timely manner. Aecon’s Accessibility policy can be provided in an accessible format upon request.
Accessibility Multi-year Plan
Aecon is committed to the development and maintenance of a Multi-Year Accessibility Plan (“Accessibility Plan”) outlining the company’s strategy to prevent and remove barriers impacting persons with disabilities. Our Accessibility Plan will be consistently under review until all objectives are carried out in accordance with the timeframes set out in the Integrated Accessibility Standard. In addition, the Accessibility Plan will be reviewed and updated at least once every five years.
