<Lionel> https://
<Lionel> https://
Lionel: there are multiple stakeholders, there should be an expression of what the role is expected to do.
… RACI
… go to maturity model these roles don't exactly fit anymore by the language we use.
… task is to update the evidence sheet, if I start doing this, I would take tasks of implementing the maturity model.
Sheri_B-H: this came before me, from Jean. I do like it. I agree we should use RACI and align the language with the maturity model, this is ~ 5 years or more old. could be improved. open for discussion.
jlkline: I remember this we put it on the back burner. didn't have a lot of relevance. if we went through the model and the dimensions and assign the roles to that or recommended roles. up to the org. I don't know if we need to spend a lot of time on this? shoud be focused on this, tool, spreadsheet, scoring metrics etc.
janina: I think this is important, I believe Jean was a driver of how this reads. I think we should request Jean to a couple of these meetings. She has a lot of history here.
Sheri_B-H: I can contact her.
janina: I can also invite her, I just need a date.

Stacey: I don't have permission to open this document.
Susi: organized some of the items, employee support, organization support, training programs. and then external support for customers
… I marked in a different color the changes made.
Sheri_B-H: I like the additions, there are some overlap with other dimensions. Some of these implicate legal requirements some countries don't require vouchers for transportation as an example. We need to make this more generic.
… R&D conference at VMWare, gave me an Uber voucher. If your company is providing transportation it needs to be accessibly. could be to pay to provide accessible transportation.
… blind employees in India are paid for transportation to/from work but not here in the US. We can leave it in but keep it optional, and keep it generic.
Susi: public issue where the company is located, pay more to use a taxi should not impact salary. should that be covered by company or not?
janina: I think we need to be careful about that.
… on my own I paid myself to / from work.
jlkline: I heard requirements, what we are talking about is proof points for maturity. with regards to accessble transportation, move away from built env. to enabling technology to obtain accessible transportation.
Susi: I agree.
jlkline: provide IT solutions to provide accessible transportation.
janina: we don't want to imply there may be a requirement as W3C is about web not full accessibility.
… I can help with language Susi, I can do my best.
stacey: what do you mean Jeff?
jlkline: organization may provide a service to move people around (campus to campus) digital infrastructure, someone could get online and order some accessible transportation. could be a solution for this.

jlkline: could be a personnel or a culture proof point.
stacey: depends on how its worded. typical employee experience.
… staff support training, could be a organizational support.
jlkline: we just need to make sure they are put in the correct place.
Susi: employees with disabilities can use their own AT.
Sheri_B-H: I like it but it needs to focus around support.
janina: this is a touchy point for companies to get permissions as it may need to be locked down.
Sheri_B-H: support AT sufficient to do the job.
… ensure there is support for employees with disabilities to use assistive technologies adequate to perform assigned tasks.
susi: employee support, offer flexible work arrangements to employees with disabilities.
