Conexão ExD Conheça as frentes de Acessibilidade No dia 16 de maio é celebrado o Dia Mundial de Conscientização sobre a Acessibilidade (em inglês, Global Acessibility Awareness Day – GAAD). Nesta data, empresas e organizações mundiais fazem ações voltadas para o tema, e nós também vamos aproveitar a ocasião para falar deste assunto! Convidamos você para conhecer as iniciativas de acessibilidade em que os times de Experiência e Design e o Hub de Acessibilidade estão atuando. A acessibilidade faz parte das nossas premissas para a criação de experiências, por isso é sempre importante pensarmos nela desde o início do processo e em todas as etapas.
Event Type: Private/Internal Events
Over the last several years, Liberty Mutual has been on a multi-year journey to create an even more inclusive and accessible workplace. To increase the company’s digital accessibility and inclusion practices, in May, we launched a month-long series of virtual and in-person events to enrich employees understanding of what it means to create accessible products. Focused on design and development, through 15 events we explored topics such as inclusive innovation, accessible-first engineering, web accessibility and more. The program was run in partnership with the organization’s employee resource group (ERG), Able@Liberty + Allies – which supports people with disabilities, caregivers, and family members – providing first-person insight into the impact of accessible product design.
