Disability Equality Duty
Local Authorities have a new duty to promote disability equality, and the DDA (2005) requires all councils to prepare a Disability Equality Scheme by December 2006. At the heart of the Disability Equality Scheme is the requirement to involve disabled people themselves. We are currently Consultants to Bournemouth Borough Council, coordinating a consultation exercise, a working group, mapping, impact assessments, and the production of the Scheme itself. We are currently developing Disability Impact Assessment Training.
Our services for Local Authorities also include:
Access Audits | Ergonomic Assessments | Training | Vocational Rehabilitation & Return to Work Plans | Website Accessibility
D.O.T.S are in a unique position to assist local authorities to devise and/or implement their Disability Equality Scheme.
D.O.T.S can advise on policies related to employment practice, (for example recruitment), monitoring provision of services (for example user surveys or mystery shopper audits), and can provide Training on disability equality issues.
