I am learning British Sign Language (BSL) for personal reasons, and as a training company, we want to ensure that we are able to communicate effectively with anyone who has hearing impairments. We believe that inclusivity is crucial, not just in terms of providing equal access to information, but in creating an environment where all individuals feel valued and understood.
Learning BSL is a step towards fostering a more accessible and supportive workplace. By equipping ourselves with this skill, we aim to improve communication with deaf and hard-of-hearing colleagues or clients, making sure that everyone has an equal opportunity to participate in discussions, trainings, and decision-making processes.
Additionally, we understand that this isn't just about learning a new language—it’s about promoting a culture of empathy, respect, and openness. We're committed to continuously improving our approach to accessibility and inclusivity, and integrating BSL is one of the many steps we're taking to ensure that we meet the diverse needs of the people we work with.
