Facilities for persons with disabilities (OKU) are highly important at Politeknik Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah (PSA) to ensure accessibility, safety, and inclusivity across the campus. The provision of ramps, designated OKU parking spaces, and accessible pathways allows students, staff, and visitors with mobility challenges to move around the campus comfortably and independently. These facilities reflect PSA’s commitment to creating an equitable and barrier-free learning environment for everyone.
It is essential that all OKU facilities are clearly labeled and reserved exclusively for individuals with disabilities to prevent misuse by others. Proper signage, tactile pathways, and wheelchair-friendly entrances to academic buildings, hostels, and public areas further enhance accessibility. Additionally, regular monitoring and maintenance of these facilities are crucial to ensure their effectiveness and safety.
Through these inclusive practices, PSA not only complies with accessibility standards but also promotes awareness, respect, and empathy among the campus community. This initiative aligns with SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) and supports PSA’s vision of being a caring and inclusive SmartGreen institution that values diversity and equal opportunity.
