National staffing services company, Select Appointments, has become the first recruitment company in the UK to be profiled on the web-based nationwide disabled access register, Direct Enquiries.
Selectís partnership with Direct Enquiries presents the opportunity to communicate detailed information to the websiteís users about access and other facilities across the national network of offices.
In addition, as part of its accessibility programme Select has dedicated a section of select.co.uk to disability access, which also lists the facilities available at each office, including sign language, induction loops, and access for assistance dogs.
Bernard Latham, health and safety advisor at Select Appointments said: ìSelect believes in the importance of the community, acting as a responsible partner bringing jobseekers and employers together. To achieve this we are committed to providing the highest levels of service to all our customers without prejudice in an accessible and welcoming environment.
Every jobseeker is important to us and by identifying what additional assistance might be required before an appointment is made, we can endeavour to ensure that the candidateís individual needs are met.î
Grant Kennedy, Chief Executive, Direct Enquiries said: ìThe attitude we have experienced from Select towards disabled people is excellent and weíre pleased that our website users now have information regarding access at a leading recruitment provider.î
Selectís accessibility programme is ongoing and current projects include the development of voice synthesized screen reader software to improve access for the blind and partially sighted and a training workshop to improve knowledge and awareness of disability issues.
