All businesses are required to meet the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and provide non discriminatory access and egress for all, and an audit from an Access Consultant can help protect from claims of disability discrimination.
The DDA is crucial legislation that ensures equal opportunities for individuals with disabilities, and it’s vital for businesses like yours to meet its legal requirements to ensure that all legal risks are mitigated.

The DDA Audit report includes a thorough analysis of the potential risks and implications related to each non-compliant element in addition to identifying the non-compliant locations in your building. The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliance is ensured by emphasising those concerns that need immediate attention and providing a clear plan for prioritising and addressing them.
Our Disability Access Consultant will divide non-compliant items into three categories: those that require immediate action, like mobility-impairing accessibility barriers, those that can be conveniently included in routine building maintenance, like fixing broken handrails or upgrading signage, and lastly, those that may require additional feasibility studies, like structural changes or long-term accessibility planning.
The DDA Audit will also evaluate the priority levels of each identified risk.
Some services also require inspection by our Access Consultants during or on completion of construction.

By adhering to the DDA, businesses can create an inclusive and accessible environment, which brings several benefits:
Legal Compliance: Compliance with the DDA is essential to avoid legal consequences. Non-compliance may result in lawsuits, penalties, and damage to a company’s reputation. Adhering to the law helps businesses maintain ethical practices and fulfil their legal obligations.
Equal Opportunity: The DDA promotes equal opportunity by prohibiting discrimination against individuals with disabilities. By actively meeting the requirements of the DDA, businesses create an inclusive workplace where employees with disabilities have equal access to employment opportunities, career advancement, and fair treatment.
Diverse Workforce: Embracing diversity, including individuals with disabilities, enhances the overall diversity of the workforce. Hiring individuals with disabilities can bring unique perspectives, skills, and experiences to the workplace, leading to increased innovation, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. A diverse workforce also helps businesses connect with a broader customer base, as people with disabilities represent a significant consumer segment.
Enhanced Reputation: Businesses that prioritise accessibility and inclusivity foster positive perceptions among their employees, customers, and the general public. Demonstrating a commitment to meeting the DDA requirements can enhance a company’s reputation as an inclusive and socially responsible organisation. Positive word-of-mouth and recommendations can lead to increased customer loyalty and attract top talent.
Increased Customer Base: By meeting the accessibility standards outlined in the DDA, businesses can cater to a wider customer base. Accessibility considerations, such as accessible entrances, facilities, and customer service, enable individuals with disabilities to access and enjoy products, services, and physical spaces. This inclusivity can contribute to customer satisfaction and loyalty, ultimately expanding the customer base.
Employee Well-being: Complying with the DDA fosters a supportive work environment that values and respects all employees. This can lead to increased employee morale, engagement, and productivity. When employees feel that their needs are considered and accommodated, they are more likely to be satisfied with their work and perform at their best.
Innovation in Design: Accessibility requirements outlined in the DDA can drive innovation in product and service design. Businesses that proactively address accessibility concerns are more likely to develop innovative solutions that benefit a broader range of users. These innovations can not only serve individuals with disabilities but also have a positive impact on the overall user experience for all customers.
