Accessibility Plan 2021-2024

 

Message from the President

People2.0 is committed to serving all individuals with respect and dignity. Part of this commitment is ensuring that people with disabilities have the resources and access they require in order to participate as employees, clients, and members of the general public who are interested in learning more about our services.

Our Accessibility plan outlines our planned activities and confirms our commitment to ensuring an accessible, welcoming environment for everyone.

Steve Schaus

President

 

Introduction

People2.0 strives to meet the needs of its employees and customers with disabilities and is working diligently to remove and prevent barriers to accessibility.

Our organization is committed to fulfilling the requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act. This accessibility plan outlines the steps People2.0 is taking to meet those requirements and to improve opportunities for individuals with disabilities.

As other provinces and territories develop their own accessibility legislation, People2.0 will ensure that our accessibility activities meet or exceed compliance requirements in all areas for all employees, regardless of location.

People2.0 is committed to a framework for change that begins with articulating a vision of inclusion based on research and self-reflection. We will implement strategies, policies, and practices inspired by that vision, including addressing the organization’s public image and information (communications). We will continuously improve through an on-going process of evaluation and change.

An inclusive approach will be thoroughly integrated into the organization’s on-going activities, operations, and relationships. People2.0 will make every effort to identify and remove barriers to inclusion.

People2.0 is committed to employment diversity with respect to all aspects of employment. Accordingly, all decisions regarding recruitment, hiring, promotion, compensation, employee development decisions such as training, and all other terms and conditions of employment, will be made without regard to race, religious beliefs, colour, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, physical and mental disability, age, ancestry or place of origin.

People2.0 will make every effort to make its employee workforce representative and reflective of the communities in which its services are provided. The People2.0 will endeavour to ensure that the workplace, all policies, procedures, and practices are free of deliberate or unintentional (systemic) barriers so that no one is disadvantaged.

Our Human Resources department is embarking on the development of a new 3-year strategy to build on current accessibility achievements. This new strategy will enhance training, access to information and strengthen our commitment through action.

We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains, or in any part of our business. Our Anti-Slavery Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and  with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and  controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in out supply chains and  partnerships.  

We value partnerships and suppliers who support these principles and impart our attitude towards  compliance to the organisations we work with. We recognise the importance of this ethos within the  recruitment sector and can demonstrate our commitment to compliance through the following steps.  These include:- 

  • award of sector specific employer accreditations; 
  • award of country specific temporary worker licencing authorisations; 
  • membership of employment organisations; 
  • adherence to specific collective agreements; 
  • adherence to health and safety audits;
  • adherence to financial audits; 
  • assessment of working environments; 
  • adherence to minimum wage regulations; 
  • regular communication and contact with contractors, agencies and clients; 
  • adherence to working time regulations; and 
  • requiring contractual commitments from our partners to modern slavery legislation.

DUE DILIGENCE PROCESSES FOR SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING 

As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, we have multiple legal teams based across our  European offices and work closely with local lawyers and accountants in each jurisdiction in which we  operate to ensure that we are engaging employees and contractors compliantly in line with local labour  laws. Our legal teams work closely with the sales and operations departments to ensure compliance  alignment. This enables us to work collaboratively to:- 

  • Identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chains. 
  • Mitigate the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains. 
  • Monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains. 
  • Protect against illegal working practices.

In relation to our internal suppliers, we engage with recognised telecoms and facilities providers, ethical  local food suppliers, and local cleaning providers with whom we have a long-standing relationship.  

RISK ASSESSMENT & MEASURING EFFECTIVENESS 

People2.0 UK regularly assesses the risks of non-compliance when engaging with new business deals to ensure it provides the highest standard of service. We work collaboratively from a compliance  perspective with individuals across the following departments in order to ensure all those in our supply  chain and contractors adhere to our values 

  • Legal 
  • Audit and compliance 
  • Finance 
  • Operations 
  • Sales 

People2.0 UK measure the effectiveness of the steps it takes by educating internal staff and external  partners in relation to labour compliance, reviewing internal policies and procedures and monitoring  feedback.  

TRAINING 

To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply  chains and our business, we will continue to educate our staff.  

FUTURE STEPS AND REVIEW  

People2.0 UK believes in seeking continuous improvement opportunities to raising standards. We will  continuously develop our policies, procedures and training to support our compliance responsibilities.
