In this episode of Tap’d Talks HR, we are joined by Lisa Riemers, communications specialist, accessibility advocate and author, to explore accessible communication and why it matters far more than many organisations realise.
We unpack what accessible communication really means in today’s digital and hybrid workplaces, not just for people with disabilities, but for everyone trying to get information, make decisions and do their jobs well.
Lisa explains:
- What accessible communication is (and what it isn’t)
- Why one in three people will need assistive technology at some point in their lives
- Common missteps organisations make – from colour contrast to overcomplicated language
- How accessible communication improves inclusion, productivity and trust
- Why plain language, structure and format matter as much as content
- Simple, low-effort steps leaders and HR teams can take right now
