In support of ESDC’s Accessibility Strategy, ESDC is working on and testing an interdepartmental initiative to replace existing GC tools to ensure availability of more accessible toolsets, where such collaborative tools (i.e. Office 365) used for accessibility follow internationally recognized accessibility standards. ESDC is also working to ensure interoperability of adaptive technologies with the ESDC collaboration toolset. These digital collaboration tools are required for Canadians with disabilities as they continue to face barriers to their full participation in the workplace, which limit their opportunities for career development and advancement.
