Accessibility Guidelines

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Compliance

Location Scout Pro strives to comply with the WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines. These guidelines outline how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. We have implemented the following measures to ensure accessibility:

• Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML elements to structure our content, making it easier for assistive technologies to understand the purpose and meaning of each element.
• Alternative Text for Images: All images on our website have descriptive alternative text (alt text) that conveys the content and function of the image to users who cannot see it.
• Keyboard Navigation: Our website is fully navigable using a keyboard, allowing users who cannot use a mouse to access all content and functionality.
• Sufficient Color Contrast: We ensure that there is sufficient color contrast between text and background colors to make the content readable for users with low vision or color blindness.
• Clear and Consistent Navigation: Our website has a clear and consistent navigation structure, making it easy for users to find the information they need.
• Resizable Text: Users can easily resize the text on our website without losing content or functionality.
• Forms with Labels: All form fields have clear and descriptive labels, making it easy for users to understand the purpose of each field.
• ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance the accessibility of dynamic content and complex user interface components.

Specific Accessibility Features Implemented

To further enhance the accessibility of our website, we have implemented the following specific features:

• Skip Navigation Link: A skip navigation link is provided at the top of each page, allowing users to bypass the main navigation menu and go directly to the main content.
• Focus Indicators: Clear focus indicators are provided for all interactive elements, making it easy for keyboard users to see which element is currently in focus.
• Descriptive Link Text: All links have descriptive text that clearly indicates the destination of the link.
• Proper Heading Structure: We use a proper heading structure (H1, H2, H3, etc.) to organize our content, making it easier for users to navigate and understand the structure of the page.
• Accessible Tables: Tables are used appropriately for tabular data and are marked up with proper semantic HTML elements, including <caption> and scope attributes for <th> elements.
• Video Transcripts and Captions: All video content includes transcripts and captions, making it accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.

• JAWS (Job Access With Speech)
