At Tandia we are committed to creating and supporting an accessible environment for all. We strive to ensure that people with disabilities feel welcome and have barrier-free access to our products and services. As an employer, we are committed to removing as many barriers to employment as possible to create an inclusive workplace.

I am proud of our achievements and our continued commitment in supporting an accessible organization for our valued members and staff.
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA), sets a goal of an accessible Ontario by 2025. Ontario has introduced new Accessibility Standards for Customer Service (The Standard), the first accessibility standard created under the authority of the AODA. Tandia strives to ensure that key principles of independence, dignity, integration and equality of opportunity are reflected and valued in our business and working environment.
Tandia is committed to providing people with disabilities the same opportunity of access to our services in the same location and in a similar way as these services are available to all we serve. To ensure support for and compliance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) and relevant regulations, Tandia makes reasonable efforts to ensure that it provides accessible member service to people with various kinds of disabilities and respects the core principles of independence, dignity, integration and equal opportunity.
