Accessible Customer Service Policy

Providing Goods and Services to People with Disabilities

Our Accessible Customer Service Policy and Accessible Workplace Policy and Statement of Commitment Policy outlines specifically how we will carry out our functions and responsibilities with respect to providing accessible goods and services to people with disabilities. Accessible refers to the ability for everyone, regardless of disability or special needs, to access, use and benefit from our products and services as much as possible. While we strive to have accessibility "built in" to our customer service procedures, where this is not currently available, we will focus on providing an alternative or adapting to individual needs.
