Let’s go through some dos and don’ts when it comes to language in the workplace: ✅ Do: Adopt a patient, curious, open attitude to learning more about disability and accessibility. ⚠️ Don’t: Use euphemisms or substitutes for “disability.” Saying things like “special needs” or “differently-abled” is not appropriate. ✅ Do: Celebrate disability and the skills, talents, and abilities of disabled people. ⚠️ Don’t: Use negative terms regarding disabled people, for example, saying someone is “wheelchair bound.” ✅ Do: See assistive devices, like wheelchairs, as liberating rather than confining. ⚠️ Don’t: Tokenize disabled people by calling them “inspirational” for doing the same tasks as non-disabled people. Calling people with disabilities “inspirational” doesn't help to normalize their experiences. If you’re in the early stages of your accessibility journey, then you might not yet be familiar with some of the common disability terminology in the accessibility and inclusion space. Keep that patient, curious, open attitude and you’ll be on the right path!
