UNE Universal Accessibility Certification 170001

UNE Universal Accessibility Certification 170001. We guarantee accessible environments for all. It improves inclusion and complies with international standards. 

It guarantees universal accessibility to services and environments for all users

The adoption of a Universal Accessibility Management System guarantees all people, regardless of their age or disability, the same possibilities of access to any part of the built environment, transport or urban planning and to the use and enjoyment of the services provided therein with the greatest possible autonomy in their use. 

The adoption of the UNE 170001-2 Standard implies the organisation's social commitment to equal rights and opportunities for all people, regardless of their abilities. In this way, any customer who wants to access an environment and receive the services provided in it, will be able to do so since the organization will have provided accessibility to both its environments and its services.

Work environment and adaptation of the workplace

Likewise, the universal accessibility developed in accordance with the UNE 170001-2 Standard for work environments, manifests the commitment of organizations to society, creating environments where any worker , regardless of their abilities, can carry out their work activities under conditions of equal opportunities than the rest. The adoption of this standard makes it easier for organisations to develop compliance and corporate social responsibility for the integration of people with disabilities into the labour market.

Complying with the DALCO requirements of Standard UNE 170001-1:2007, the organization will be prepared to guarantee that it is accessible, and that this accessibility is not occasional and will be maintained over time.

Sectors and experience of the Certification

Related Industries

This regulation applies to all sectors, both public and private, where citizens make use of public services such as transport, built spaces such as hospitals, primary care centres, universities, dependencies of the City Councils and Autonomous Communities and Central Administration.

It applies to any business location, whether it is for customer service (hotels, shopping centres, museums, distribution networks, bank offices, points of sale, department stores, residences), or the work environments of any organisation , whether public or private.

Integration with other systems

The certification according to the UNE 170001-2 standard is perfectly compatible and complementary with the ISO 9001 quality certification since it shares with this standard the tools of management systems such as planning, objectives, corrective and preventive actions, etc., adding the perspective of Universal Accessibility that is not covered by quality management systems traditional.

So far, 41 certificates have been issued to companies and administrations, from various sectors such as banks, beaches, passenger transport, service stations, shopping centres, hotels, etc.
