We’ve worked hard to make this website as accessible as possible. We’ve taken into account both versions 1.0 and 2.0 of the Web Accessibility Content Guidelines (WCAG) and we’ve tested the website with real people.
Assistive technologies
The "Love where you work" website has been designed to industry standards and should validate as such (if it doesn’t and you know about this sort thing, let us know). It should work well with assistive technologies such as screen readers and screen magnifiers and uses clever techniques, such as an on screen tool to make all text larger.
