In a notice to stakeholders, the Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility announced it is extending the accessibility compliance reporting deadline under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) for businesses and non-profit organizations from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021.
Meantime, the province says it is encouraging organizations to use this additional time to assess their compliance with the AODA’s standards and make changes to their services to help advance accessibility in Ontario.
