Accessibility
Life Works is fully committed to working towards its web site being accessible as possible and inclusive for all its users regardless of their physical or mental capability.
We are working towards complying with Priority 2 of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. These guidelines include:
- Allowing users to control text size.
- Using an easy to read font type.
- Images that convey important information have alternative text and where an image is used for a decorative purpose the alternative text will be blank.
- Providing simple and consistent site navigation.
- Assigning access keys for navigational elements.
- Ensuring the target of each link is clearly defined.
- Providing a site map for information about the layout of the web site and for quick navigation.
- Providing navigational shortcuts for users of text only browsers and page readers.
- Using appropriate structural mark-up to maximise browser support.
- Ensuring all content and functionality is available to users without content style sheet (CSS), image and script support.
