Williams HR Law LLP

Disability Management

Human rights codes in every Canadian province guarantee equal opportunities and rights under law for any person with a disability. That includes requiring an employer to accommodate these individuals to the point of undue hardship should the need arise. In Ontario, these requirements are also enforced under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA).

Our team is committed to helping organizations understand and satisfy their accommodation obligations on a proactive basis, before non-compliance results in potential damages and penalties for violations of federal or provincial legislation.

Organizations that develop proactive disability management policies have the opportunity to demonstrate awareness, credibility and fairness, while also helping to secure contracts with leading companies and attract top talent.

WE PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING DISABILITY MANAGEMENT SERVICES TO EMPLOYERS:

Proactive policy design and deployment
Pre- and post-incident management training
Post-incident performance monitoring
Post-incident risk assessment and mitigation
Employee back-to-work strategy and management
Employee mediation and engagement restoration

What our clients say

As a firm, Williams HR Law has taught us about the value of thinking proactively when it comes to employment law. They’ve helped us to think strategically and save money while avoiding unnecessary risk. It’s a refreshing change from the other firms we’ve worked with in the past.

We faced a situation where we had to terminate an employee under a very difficult set of circumstances, and our workplace culture was impacted as a result. WHRL worked to understand our business and develop a customized strategy to help restore the great workplace environment we used to have.

I have recommended and used Laura Williams' legal services on behalf of a number of clients. She is empathetic, thorough, and tenacious in pursuing their needs.
