Do the HAC/VC rules apply to prison telephones?
These rules apply only to telephones in the workplaces of prison employees and staff, which are subject to the same workplace requirements as any other employer. Telephones inside prison cells or inmate areas are not covered by these HAC/VC rules. Please note, however, that telephones provided to prison inmates may be subject to the accessibility requirements of other federal laws, such as Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
