National Defence and the Canadian Forces
More and more people report having adverse reactions to common substances in their daily environment. Products such as office cleaning solutions, perfumes, air fresheners, hairsprays or aftershave lotions can trigger a reaction ranging from mild to serious in some people. Avoidance of triggers is extremely difficult because of the widespread use of fragranced products. This can make it difficult for individuals with sensitivities to function in the workplace and other public environments.

Identifying Barriers to Health and Medical Services in Alberta
Please make your voice heard by completing the following Survey
ACCD survey
ACCD recently received a grant from the Alberta Human Rights and Multiculturalism Fund for a project entitled Barrier-Free Health and Medical Services in Alberta. This is not a government initiative but rather a project developed by ACCD in response to our members’ personal experiences accessing health and medical services at doctors’ offices throughout the province.
The Alberta Committee of Citizens with Disabilities is a consumer-directed provincial cross-disability organization that has worked since 1973 to promote full participation in society for Albertans with disabilities.
Over the years, we have heard numerous stories from people with disabilities about the barriers they face when visiting doctors’ offices and accessing procedures in diagnostic labs. ACCD wishes to identify these barriers and work towards removing them by recommending changes so that people with disabilities can fully access necessary health and medical services.
ACCD has developed a survey to gather information on the experiences people with disabilities have when going to a doctor’s office or diagnostic clinic.

Scents and sensibility
Is it time for you to flush your toilet water and swear off wearing scents at work? It isn’t just that some people don’t like the smells of the perfumes, colognes, body sprays and grooming products used by co-workers. Chemicals in the fragrances can trigger reactions ranging from headaches to heart palpitations in people who are sensitive to them, making it difficult for them to work effectively. While there are no Canadian laws regulating the wearing of fragrances in the workplace, a recent U.S. court ruling has put the issue back in the limelight. And a growing number of workplaces are voluntarily going scent-free. Should your workplace be next?
