Accessibility

We want everyone, including people who use assistive technology, to be able to use this website and our SEWP VI ordering guide.

Our standard

This website and the ordering guide are built to meet the Revised Section 508 Standards (36 CFR Part 1194), which adopt the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA. We check every page against WCAG 2.x Level AA with automated tests before each change is published, and test by keyboard and with a screen reader.

What we did

• Every page works with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus outline and a “Skip to main content” link.
• Text and buttons meet the 4.5:1 contrast ratio.
• Pages use real headings, lists and landmarks, so screen readers can move around them.
• Pages reflow to a phone’s width without sideways scrolling and can be zoomed to 200%.
• The ordering guide is a tagged PDF with a title, language and headings, and is also available as a web page.
