Our Accessible Customer Service Policy

Policy Statement
McLean Taylor Construction Limited is committed to treating all people in a way that allows them to maintain their dignity and independence. McLean Taylor Construction Limited is committed to meeting the needs of people with disabilities in a timely manner, and will do so by preventing and removing barriers to accessibility and meeting accessibility requirements under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA).

Background and Purpose:
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) is a provincial Act for the purpose of developing, implementing and enforcing standards that enhance the ability of persons with disabilities to access all available opportunities.
​

Accessibility Standards for Customer Service is the first standard to be passed as a regulation and become law in Ontario. Under this standard, designated organizations must develop policies, procedures and practices pertaining to customer service to persons with disabilities.

What is Accessible Customer Service?
Persons with disabilities may require assistance or accommodation in the way that goods and services are provided to them. The type of accommodation provided may vary depending on the customer’s unique needs.

General Principles

The Provision of Goods and Services to Persons with Disabilities
McLean Taylor Construction Limited will use reasonable efforts to ensure that the company’s services are provided in a way that:
  • Respects the dignity and independence of persons with disabilities;
  • Provides goods and services to persons with disabilities in an integrated manner with those who do not have disabilities, unless an alternative accommodation is necessary;
  • Provides persons with disabilities with an opportunity equal to that given to others.
When communicating with a person with a disability, McLean Taylor will do so in a manner that takes into account theperson’s disability.

Service Animals
Persons with disabilities may use service animals to assist them in accessing McLean T aylor’s services. Persons withdisabilities will be permitted to enter premises owned and/or operated by McLean Taylor with their service animal if the public has access to these areas. They will be permitted to keep the service animal with them, unless the animal is excluded by another law. If it is not obvious that the animal is a service animal, the customer may be requested to provide a letter from a physician or nurse confirming that they require the animal for reasons relating to their disability, or for a valid identification card/training certificate from a recognized service animal training school. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their service animal is kept under control at all times.

Support Person
Persons with disabilities may be accompanied by a support person while on McLean Taylor premises.

Assistive Devices
Persons with disabilities may use assistive devices to access McLean Taylor’s goods and services. These can include, but are not limited to: walkers, canes, or speech amplification devices. Employees of the company will not touch assistive devices without permission or move them out of the reach of the client. Additionally, the company will inform clients of accessible features at McLean Taylor and/or the immediate environment, if it is felt that they would be useful to them.

Summary of Accessible Customer Service Requirements

Personal Assistive Devices: Allow people with disabilities to use assistive devices to access goods and services.

Service Animals: Allow people with disabilities to bring their service animals onto the public parts of the premises, unless the animal is excluded by another law.

Support Persons: Allow people with disabilities to bring their support persons with them when accessing goods and services and while in those areas of the premises that are open to the public or other third parties.

Service Disruption Notice: Inform the public when facilities or services regularly used by people with disabilities are temporarily unavailable.

Communicate: Communicate with a person with a disability in a manner that takes into account his or her disability.

Feedback: Receive and respond to feedback on services to people with disabilities.

Notice of Temporary Disruptions in Services and Facilities

Temporary disruptions in McLean Taylor services and facilities may occur. These disruptions may be unplanned, or involve planned maintenance and repairs, or occur for other reasons.
​

If an unplanned temporary disruption occurs, notice will be provided as soon as reasonably possible. When the temporary disruption is planned, notice will be posted. McLean Taylor will provide notice in visible places and on the website, or in other ways considered reasonable under the circumstances. Notices will provide information about the reason for disruption, its expected duration, and other methods of accessing the services or facilities if they are available.
