The advantages of evaluation and certification
The evaluation of your establishment by Kéroul lets you know its level of accessibility. The certification enables you to:
Get in touch with Nathalie Royto get evaluated by Keroul!
Evaluations conducted by Kéroul and its representatives are primarily intended to inform visitors with disabilities of the level of accessibility of hospitality services and infrastructure.
The evaluation report does not cover the compliance of infrastructures and equipment with all regulations and codes in force. As set out in the Building Act, designers and contractors answer to the Régie du bâtiment when it comes to the compliance of their plans and construction work.
Establishments evaluated by Kéroul obtain three ratings. The accessibility rating identifies the establishment’s level of accessibility for persons with a mobility impairment:
Full access
Partial access
Not accessible
The two other ratings evaluate the availability of services tailored to people with a visual or hearing impairment.
Tour of hospitality infrastructure by an evaluator-representative trained and recognized by Kéroul
Official certification (valid for five years) and issuance of a permit bearing the corresponding accessibility symbol(s) for mobility, visual and hearing impairments
Creation of a detailed sheet including the accessibility rating, photos taken by the evaluator and important information for clients
At an additional cost, you can receive an evaluation report including a description of the barriers and areas of non-compliance with Kéroul’s accessibility criteria, and a list of recommendations aimed at eliminating or minimizing barriers to accessibility.
Kéroul has established a network of evaluator-representatives, comprised mainly of architects, to conduct evaluations in all regions of Quebec. This initiative aims to meet the growing demand more quickly and to offer tourism businesses a single fee schedule regardless of their location in Quebec.
Nine regions are currently served by evaluator-representatives:
