Is your company accessible?
When asked about accessibility for people with disabilities, the first thought for most people is a wheelchair ramp, elevators and accessible bathrooms. But have you thought about website accessibility? Web accessibility means that those with low vision or who are blind, those that have hearing-impairments or are deaf, those with cognitive disabilities and those with manual dexterity disabilities can use and access your site. For instance, can a program that reads the text on the screen provide the same access to the website’s information as a sighted person would have? Can someone who is deaf know what is being said in a video on your site? Or can someone with a dexterity problem move about your site in a way that does not require a mouse? A well-designed website that is accessible appears seamless to all users.
