Deaf and Blind employees inclusivity

Deaf and Blind employees inclusivity
Remote working has brought up a lot more possibilities for disabled employees. Those who found it difficult to office spaces are much more comfortable with remote working, employees who had to stop working due to issues of commuting will no longer have that hurdle. However, there is still a long way to go in terms of inclusivity especially for the blind and deaf employees.

For such employees, real-time audio and subtitles are the way to go which is a very new and developing technology. RNIB and the Deafness Cognition and Language Research Centre at University College London have issued guidelines to help employers create a more inclusive remote working environment. Experts say that in the case of visually impaired people, they often use speech tools, what employers can do is make sure that whatever system they are using is suitable for the software. Online communication software has proved to be a boon for employers in keeping their employees engaged, the CEO of Livestream Gilles Bertuax has said that they are working to make the system more inclusive for the visually impaired, allowing them to easily navigate the software using their Keyboard. Services such as Google Meet and Zoom have introduced live subtitles options for their deaf users.
