Toronto, Canada - Office Accessibility

Accessibility is fundamental to Salesforce culture. We make our spaces as inclusive as possible, but also know that some of our offices still have some restrictions and limitations.

We want to make sure that visitors, guests, and employees are aware of any constraints in our office spaces, as well as highlight some of the accessible provisions that can be expected when visiting us. That way, everyone is empowered to plan their visit and make their time with us easy and enjoyable.

Getting to and from the office

Transportation options are provided below and are the directions from the two major airports that surround Toronto. The transportation to/from both airports drop off or pick up from Union Station which is nine minutes from the Salesforce entrance.

How It Works:
A small (7cm x 7cm) battery-powered device known as a beacon is located inside the doorways and common areas of businesses and other public buildings. The beacon silently communicates with the BlindSquare app through Bluetooth low-energy signals and is programmed with indoor wayfinding information based on which area the beacon is in. The messaging integrates with the BlindSquare app to provide more comprehensive navigation.
