Business Accessibility Empowerment Program EOI |
This is the EOI for the Business Accessibility Empowerment Program. This is a no cost service that will work one-on-one with your business to enable you to become more confident in three ways:
- Customer Service and Client Accessibility: Improve/Become more welcoming of the 1 in 5 Australians who have a disability who may be customers, stakeholders, referrals who all form a potentially untapped market. This can potentially boost your revenue by 20% or more!
- Retain & Support Staff: Help to support and retain employees who may acquire a disability (or may already have a disability that is not visible or disclosed) so that skilled talent is not lost
- Expand Talent Pool: Expand your recruiting options - tap into a broader talent pool when making recruiting decisions
The time commitment is 3 hours over two meetings. There are four basic elements to the service.
- A business analysis will be undertaken to understand your business and workplace culture to inform our recommendations. This will take 15 minutes and is an online survey.
- An upskilling workshop to build your awareness about disability and unconscious bias. This is a two-hour workshop delivered by young people with disabilities that can be delivered flexibly to you and your staff.
- A premises check i.e. walking around your building and giving you written feedback about improvements to accessibility. We can also conduct an online audit, looking at the accessibility of your website/social medias. This will take one hour, and we will conduct it at a time suitable to you.
- A recommendations document with practical strategies.
