At DEAFinition, we believe that inclusion isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a commitment to understanding, learning, and embracing diversity. Our services empower organizations to create workplaces where everyone thrives, regardless of their hearing abilities.
DEAFinition App
Our DEAFinition App is a powerful tool that teaches basic South African Sign Language (SASL) to users. By promoting language proficiency, it enables better communication between Deaf and hearing individuals within the workplace. Whether you’re a colleague, manager, or client, this app equips you with essential signs to bridge the communication gap.
Common Workplace Signs
Communication barriers can hinder productivity and understanding. Our Common Workplace Signs Posters display frequently used signs, making it easier for everyone to interact. These posters serve as visual aids, promoting efficient communication and fostering an inclusive environment. From simple greetings to workplace-specific signs, they enhance understanding and collaboration.
Support products
We offer practical support products that help identify Deaf personnel to the general public:
- “I am Deaf” Name Badges: These badges proudly declare an individual’s Deaf identity, creating awareness and facilitating respectful interactions.
- “I am Deaf” Waistcoats: Our waistcoats serve as a visible marker, signaling that the wearer is part of the Deaf community. They encourage understanding and empathy among colleagues and clients.
Deaf Sensitisation Training
Transitioning existing staff into an inclusive workplace requires understanding and empathy. Our Deaf Sensitisation Training is specifically designed to achieve this. Through interactive workshops, participants gain insights into Deaf culture, communication nuances, and best practices. By fostering empathy and awareness, we create a more inclusive work environment.
SASL Training
South African Sign Language (SASL) is a valuable skill for anyone interacting with Deaf colleagues or clients. Our SASL Training offers various courses, empowering participants to communicate effectively. Whether you’re a beginner or seeking advanced proficiency, our skilled facilitators guide you through this rich and expressive language.
