October 31, 2018Survey: Our Ability, Small Business and the ADA
Our Ability has been asked by Cornell to reach out to the business community to research the ways small organizations are implementing Title I of the ADA (the employment provisions). To continue to build opportunities, it is important to have updated best practices, today.
WHO should complete this survey? Representatives of organizations that have fewer than 500 employees, specifically leaders or those with human resources roles. We welcome those with experience with the employment provisions of the ADA, but the perspective of those without direct experience with disability or accommodation in their organization will also help us understand information needs.
WHAT is asked in this survey? Participants will be asked review some introductory information about the ADA and disability and to anonymously provide some information about their organization related to the following:
- Organizational policy and practice
- Information needs around the ADA and disability
- Information sources used for ADA or HR-related questions
- Characteristics of the organization
This information will be compiled into an aggregated report, and organization names or individual information will NOT be shared.
WHEN does this survey take place? Now.It should take approximately 10 minutes or less complete the survey.
WHY should I participate? The results will inform the design of tools, resources, and other assistance to support small employers around implementing Title I of the ADA and creating a disability inclusive workplace.
PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE ACCESS TO THE FOLLOWING:
1. ENTRY INTO A DRAWING for a $50 gift card (1 in 20 chance of winning)
2. FINAL REPORT on study findings
3. EARLY ACCESS TO RESOURCES DEVELOPED
4. OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN FUTURE RESEARCH
