Induction Loops and the Disability Discrimination Act 2004
The Disability Discrimination Act states that any business
or organisation providing a product or service to the general public
must provide auxiliary aids and services (such as installing an
Induction Loop System) to enable or make
it easier to use such "services" whenever information
is verbally provided. The full implementation of this legislation
must be completed by 2004.
Our Mr G. W. Yates has been designing and installing
Induction Loop Systems for over 40 years
and many years ago was involved in negotiations with the national
Health Service, these resulted in all NHS Hearing Aids incorporating
Induction Loop pick up devices.
Nearly 5,500 permanent Induction Loop
Installations have been completed and many hundreds of temporary
facilities provided for major Annual General Meetings etc for organisations
such as British Telecom, British Gas, Marks & Spencer, privatised
water & electricity Companies and a host of internationally
known "household names".
