Website accessibility

The standard we aim at

We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA across this website and the Workover application. We are not claiming full conformance: parts of the product are newer than others, and a blanket claim would be worth less to you than an honest one. Where we know we fall short, we would rather you could tell us.

What we do today

• Semantic headings and landmarks, so a screen reader can navigate by structure.
• Keyboard operability for interactive elements, menus, dialogs and the ⌘K search close on Esc and are reachable by tabbing.
• Visible focus styles, rather than focus outlines removed for appearance.
• Colour contrast checked against AA for body and interface text, with automated contrast tests in our suite.
• Motion that respects prefers-reduced-motion, animated headlines and scrolling logo strips stop when you have asked your system for less motion.
• Text alternatives for meaningful images, and decorative images marked as such.

Known gaps

The rich-text editor is the hardest surface to get right, and it is the one we are least confident about for screen-reader users, particularly around comments and tracked suggestions. Some third-party embeds in blog posts are outside our control. We are working on both.

Telling us something is wrong

Email [email protected] with the page and what happened, the assistive technology and browser you were using helps us reproduce it, but do not let not knowing that stop you writing. We aim to reply within five working days, and we will tell you what we are going to do and roughly when.

If something here blocks you from doing something you need to do, get in touch and we will find another way to get it done for you in the meantime.
