PDF Version: Accessibility Plan (2026-2029)

Canada Malting Accessibility Plan 

General

Canada Malting is committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and accessible environment for employees, applicants, customers, contractors, suppliers, visitors, and members of the public.
We are committed to identifying, removing, and preventing barriers to accessibility across our Canadian operations. We recognize that barriers may exist in employment practices, facilities, communications, technology, procurement processes, and the design and delivery of programs and services.
Accessibility is an ongoing responsibility. We will continue to listen, learn, consult persons with disabilities, and use accessibility feedback to guide our priorities and support meaningful improvement.
Our Accessibility Plan describes the barriers identified through our planning and consultation processes, the actions we intend to take, and how we will monitor and report on our progress.
