Culture Level 1 (0-3 points)

Beginning Your Culture Journey

Your assessment indicates your organisation is at Level 1 in the Culture dimension of accessibility maturity. This suggests that accessibility is not yet integrated into your organisational values and culture. While you might think nothing is happening, there may be some awareness or discussions.

Organisations at this level typically:

• Have limited awareness of disability inclusion throughout the organisation
• Lack formal recognition of accessibility as an organisational value
• Have no leadership involvement in accessibility initiatives
• Do not yet include disability in diversity and inclusion efforts
• Have not incorporated accessibility into business strategies

Key Opportunities

To develop a more mature accessibility culture:

• Encourage or start any accessibility discussions wherever you might be and look for any actions associated with equitable experiences.
• Start promoting digital accessibility as a core value across the organisation

• Engage leadership in learning about accessibility benefits
• Take initial steps to include disability in DEI conversations
• Start discussions about accessibility as a potential business differentiator

Building an inclusive culture starts with awareness. Your assessment shows you’re ready to begin this important cultural shift.
