Promote accessibility and inclusion with internationally recognized symbols and signage.
Assistive listening signage is a typical part of most legislative compliance. It also informs customers that a system is available to improve their experience. Businesses that display assistive listening signage must have a working system and meet all other legal requirements to comply with local accessibility and accommodation laws.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is specific to the United States and mandates:
EXCEPTION: Where ticket offices or windows are provided, signs shall not be required at each assembly area, provided signs are displayed at each end of the ticket office or window informing patrons of the availability of assistive listening systems.
If you have multiple windows (in a row) as a ticket office or theater, you can post a single sign on a window to promote the accommodation.
Assistive listening systems and devices can change a mediocre experience in a venue to an enjoyable one. Assistive listening systems deliver the audio directly to a device or smartphone without amplifying ambient background noise.
When a business provides an assistive listening system for its customers, guests, and patrons, there must be a way to let them know. Consequently, this is where the international symbol for deafness comes in. This icon on a sign at entrances and near guest services and ticket windows informs guests and audiences that a hearing augmentation system is available.
This symbol is required on signage for compliance with the International Building Code (IBC), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the National Building Code of Canada (NBC), and the California Building Code (CBC) to promote the availability of communication access for those with hearing loss.
Listen Technologies offers physical signs for purchase as well as digital signs you can download for free.
