Accessibility Plan and Feedback
Summary of ACA
The Accessible Canada Act SC 2019, c 10 (“ACA”) creates obligations for federally regulated telecommunications service providers (“TSPs”), to identify and remove, or prevent the erection of new barriers to accessibility.
Accessibility Plan
This Accessibility Plan applies to Masergy Communications, Inc., where it has legal obligations under the Accessible Canada Act (the ACA) and its regulations. Some of the references below, however, may apply more globally to Comcast and its accessibility practices and policies (collectively, the Company).
The Company is committed to making our products, services, and experiences accessible to the widest possible audiences. https://corporate.comcast.com/impact/accessibility. We work every day to create and foster a culture of inclusion across our company that represents and supports people of all abilities – from implementing more inclusive hiring and recruitment practices, to providing on-the-job assistive technology support, to training and mentoring resources that help to uplevel accessibility skills and knowledge across the Company.
This Accessibility Plan describes the Company’s expectations as of the date this plan was published and may be subject to change, in accordance with applicable law, and in order to reflect the evolving accessibility needs of the Company’s employees and customers.
Accomplishments to Date
The Company firmly believes in the principle that disability isn’t the lack of ability; it’s the lack of a solution and is committed to the betterment of accessible solutions for its customers and its employees. In that vein, the Company’s strategy is led by a Team under our Vice President of Accessibility. Further, the Company created an Accessibility Governance Coalition in 2021 and its membership includes senior leaders spanning multiple business units across the organization.
The Company provides internal accessibility training for employees through ULearn, our learning and development organization.
The Company’s Accessibility team maintains an internal website, for companywide use, that includes an array of reference materials and tools to educate employees on website accessibility development and design. Company websites, including Masergy’s website, are designed and developed to achieve conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA. Conformance with WCAG criteria is measured by leveraging automation tools and by manually testing with assistive technologies including screen readers, alternative input devices, screen magnification and high contrast display tools.
Masergy launched its accessibility feedback mechanism, pursuant to the ACA, in June, 2023 and welcomes customer feedback to improve the accessibility of products and services through multiple communications channels.
