About the Survey: This survey is being conducted by UFCW Canada and has been developed by UFCW Canada disability justice advocates, both persons with disabilities and their allies. All survey responses are anonymous and confidential.

Survey Goal: The purpose of this survey is to gain insight into the experiences of workers with disabilities in relation to accessibility and accommodation. This information will allow UFCW Canada to identify the main concerns of its members and staff. In doing so, it will inform the work of the UFCW Canada Human Rights, Equity, and Diversity department in establishing workplace rights and disability justice priorities. For this reason, you will be asked questions on demographics, workplace climate and employment equity priorities.

Eligible participants: Please complete this survey if:
  • you are a UFCW Canada union member who identifies as a person with a disability; or
  • you are a UFCW Canada union member and an injured worker with a long-term or permanent disability, a caregiver of someone with a disability, or a disability justice ally.
The survey will take 10 minutes to complete. Most survey questions are delivered in a multiple-choice format. Participants are encouraged to add personal comments at the end of the survey.

Important Concepts to Consider:

  1. Persons with Disabilities - Persons with disabilities include those who have long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments which, in interaction with various physical and social barriers, may hinder their full and effective participation in society on an equal basis with others. (UNCRPD)
  2. Reasonable Accommodation - “Reasonable accommodation” means necessary and appropriate modification and adjustments not imposing a disproportionate or undue burden, where needed in a particular case, to ensure to persons with disabilities the enjoyment or exercise on an equal basis with others of all human rights and fundamental freedoms (source - (UNCRPD))
  3. Injured worker: A worker who sustains a personal injury or illness arising out of or in the course of their employment.
