Helping your business to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act

Anyone with a disability is protected by the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), part of this act covers the failure by businesses to make a reasonable adjustment to allow disabled people access to goods, facilities and services. This includes building entrances and exits (including emergency escape routes), internal and external doors and access to toilet and washing facilities. JLC provide a range of services that can help your business become DDA compliant.

What this means for your business

All organisations like employers, shops, local authorities and schools must take positive steps to remove the barriers faced by anyone who has a disability. This is to ensure everyone receives the same services, as far as this is possible, regardless of ability.
