The goal of RRMJ enterprises is
to respond to and develop a workplace that is accessible to persons with
disabilities. At RRJM we feel that with
proper technology and education, virtually every person with a disability can
be a productive worker. In order for
persons with disabilities to deep their jobs or advance in the company, it is
necessary to provide them with the tools to guarantee accessibility to
microcomputers and other office equipment.
Since the person with disability has to computer with their able-bodied
colleagues, the ability to operate a program efficiently can be important to
their maintaining a comparative productivity to their colleagues.
The
necessity to develop a workplace for people with disabilities is your response
to the President’s Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities
Act. Disabled adults should not be
discriminated against in hiring or promotion because of their disability. The disability of Multiple Sclerosis was
determined to be the pilot group after an extensive need assessment of
employees with disabilities. It was
found that the majority of your workers suffered from these illnesses and that
an immediate action would be necessary.
We will develop a work environment and develop a training program to
your needs.
There is no
set pattern to MS and everyone with MS has a different set of symptoms. These symptoms can change in severity and
duration. Because the conditions are
unpredictable and sometimes progressive, our proposal has divided symptoms of
MS into primary, secondary and tertiary categories.
Most
individuals are still working at the time of diagnosis and conditions will most
likely be in the primary stage. As
conditions worsen to the secondary and tertiary categories, we are prepared to
enable these individuals the ability to continue working with the kinds of
difficulty that one may expect to have on the job.
In our
efforts to understand the difficulty one may experience on the job with MS,
we’ve developed three methods to assess the needs of the disabled
individual. Needs assessments included
live interviews with disabled workers, questionnaires, and observation of work
habits and conditions.
The needs assessment conducted by our
staff concluded that there existed an immediate need to provide the tools to
guarantee accessibility to microcomputers and other office equipment. It was also identified that a work environment
will b3e provided for an individual with the disability of Multiple Sclerosis
and who’s work responsibly include administrative tasks involving research
through the internet and reporting their finding in report form or who are
transcribing handwritten documents into computer files.
This
research packet will outline hardware and software options, office equipment,
and pricing. Depending on the conditions
of the employees, we’ve asserted several hardware and software solutions that
address the needs of each employee.
Training is available for all software and hardware.
