Persons with Disabilities and Neurodivergent people
We are committed to fostering an inclusive and accessible workplace, recognizing that true inclusivity allows us to attract, retain, and promote the best talent. By focusing on abilities rather than disabilities, we are shaping an inclusive future for all.
Our AccessAbility Action Plan
Creating an inclusive Deloitte for people with disabilities and neurodivergent people means that we can hire the best talent, retain, and promote them. It means that we are creating an inclusive future which focuses on abilities and skills, not disabilities.
Deloitte is proud to share our Accessibility Action Plan (AAP), a simple but comprehensive approach to accessibility. This plan, renewed every three years, defines our path to a more accessible and inclusive Deloitte for people with disabilities and neurodivergent people, and reaffirms our commitment to inspire our people, clients, and others to do the same. We believe that by bringing words to action we will create a better Deloitte, and a better Canada.
Each of us has a role to play in initiating the conversation and transforming the way we think, act, and do business. This plan is our commitment to building a better future by accelerating and expanding access to knowledge and opportunities for all.

Investment
As part of our action plan, we collaborate with clients who are interested in enhancing their accessibility initiatives. We also engage with suppliers and allied businesses that are owned or operated by people with disabilities and neurodivergent people, and with organizations that support Canada’s accessibility journey, helping us to navigate the complexities of the disability job market.
We collaborate and work alongside several disability alliances and organizations that promote the hiring of people with disabilities and neurodivergent people within the community across Canada. Our partners include the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, Lime Connect, Spinal Cord and Injury of Ontario, Ready, Willing and Able (RWA), and Special Olympics Ontario. Through these partnerships we engage with top talent from the disability and neurodivergence communities. We also host and participate in events and provide our people with support resources. These initiatives help us expand our talent pools and explore innovative ways to attract top, diverse talent to the firm.
Our communities
The AccessAbility Network, one of our Employee Resource Groups, champions an accessible and inclusive workplace for all employees at Deloitte, particularly those identifying with a disability or as neurodivergent. This group has been instrumental in helping deliver on Deloitte Canada’s Accessibility Action Plan. They also challenge the firm to enhance its accessibility commitments, offer peer-to-peer support, and develop thought leadership on accessibility. Through regular programming, volunteer opportunities, and interactive workshops, the AccessAbility Network contributes to an accessible and inclusive culture that benefits both our workplace and our broader community.
By continually striving to improve accessibility and inclusivity, Deloitte is committed to making a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals with disabilities and neurodivergent individuals, ensuring that everyone can explore their potential and thrive.
