As I said previously Coz, shoes are cleaned or left at the door....read back to my postings. Do you clean your shoes every day after walking your dog? Do you walk with those shoes into your house? Does you dog walk into your house?
Given the nature of the company I work for and what we do, it would be impossible for a blind or visually impaired person to deal with our working environment for reasons I cannot go into.
I have never worked with a blind or visually impaired person so have never seen animals or dogs in the workplace. At a guess I am assuming the blind or visually impaired would not be suitable for all types of work.
I heard only the other day a guide dog stopped (with his owner) in the middle of the road to have a poo. A driver pulled over, got out of his car, and went to the aid of the blind person who had no idea he was in the middle of the road nor that his dog had stopped there. You can see where this would be a liability in any workplace.
Again, given the nature and location of some places of work, it is not acceptable to have animals nor acceptable to expect employees to accept that working environement either. We also have never had a blind or visually impaired person visit for a meeting, so again, no dogs on site.
