What do the accessibility standards mean for you as an editor?
Web Accessibility is about removing barriers so that people with disabilities can use and contribute to the web.
As a content editor you have the responsibility to ensure the content you add to a website is accessible and meets the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to Level AA conformity.
The accessibility laws such as the Equality Act 2010 and The Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018 are there to ensure that the information you are putting online can be accessed by all, without barriers.
We have outlined the common accessibility standards you, as a content editor, need to know and how to comply with them.
