Building an Inclusive & Accessible Community
Customer Service Standards
Policies, Practices And Procedures
McMaster University must establish policies, practices and procedures that outline the provision of its goods and services to persons with disabilities. Those policies, practices and procedures should be consistent with the four core principles:
- Independence
- Recognizing when a person is able to do things on their own without unnecessary help or interference from others.
- Dignity
- Providing service in a way that allows the individual to maintain self-respect and the respect of other persons.
- Integration
- Providing service in a way that allows the individual to benefit from the same services, in the same place, and in the same or similar way as other students, employees, visitors, unless an alternate measure is necessary.
- Equality
- Providing service to individuals in such a way that they have an opportunity to access goods or services equal to that given to others.
