Front row or nowhere: Rethinking accessibility in work travel
It’s not enough to ask if it’s accessible. We need to ask:
What does this person need to access it well?
Join Brittany King, Meegan Winters, and Steve Nelson as they discuss how traveling for work is often seen as a privilege — but for many Disabled employees, it can be an exhausting, unsafe, and isolating experience. This session explores how companies can move beyond performative checkboxes to truly inclusive travel policies and practices. Designed for HR professionals crafting policies and senior leaders who implement them, we’ll dig into what accessibility really looks like before, during, and after business travel.
We’ll break down common travel oversights — from unclear portals to poor signage, from seating layouts to buffet lines. You’ll walk away with resources and a deeper understanding of how “accessible” isn’t one-size-fits-all.
