Air traffic controller ad – in Braille
An airport has been accused of political correctness after advertising for a new air traffic controller in Braille.
Although ‘20/20 vision’ is a requirement of the position at St Mary’s airport on the Isles of Scilly, the application form is offered in both Braille and audio format.
But the operators of the airport say they are merely adhering to equal opportunity guidelines to avoid accusations of discrimination, reports the Daily Telegraph.</em>
