Website Accessibility Audit & Compliance Fixes
Confidential Accessibility Client
The client needed a thorough accessibility audit and remediation to ensure adherence to WCAG 2.1 AA, ADA, and Section 508 compliance standards. The initiative commenced with an in-depth accessibility assessment employing both automated tools and manual testing methods, which included evaluating keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, color contrast, ARIA implementation, and semantic HTML validation. Following the audit results, accessibility issues were addressed across various templates and components, focusing on aspects such as form labels, focus management, heading organization, alternative text, and interactive features. Additionally, accessibility concerns within PDFs were identified and recorded. The outcome was a considerably enhanced, compliant, and inclusive website that minimized legal risks, improved user experience for individuals utilizing assistive technologies, and conformed to international accessibility standards. The client received an accessibility report along with recommendations for maintaining ongoing compliance.
