Lend your voice: If you were President for the day, what specific policy action would you promote or change to increase the use of accessible technologies in the workplace?

Janet Love:

I would do something to accelerate the change from fluorescent light to low flicker LED. The Job Accommodation Network lists 15 conditions that can be accommodated by turning off fluorescent light including epilepsy, migraines, heart disease, and lupus. It is also known to impact conditions such as attention deficit [disorder] and autism. I cannot work in most large organizations due to the lighting. I had 3 seizures a week while in school, and am now seizure free.
