Accessibility

A website everyone can use.

Statewide Electrical Contractors wants everyone to be able to use this website, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard instead of a mouse, screen magnification, voice control or other assistive technology.

Our standard

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. These guidelines are published by the World Wide Web Consortium and are the standard most widely used to measure website accessibility in the United States.

What we have in place

Every page starts with a “Skip to main content” link, and the whole site can be used with a keyboard, with a visible outline on the item in focus.
Images have text descriptions. The films on this site have no sound, and each one is described in text.
The home page film can be paused or replayed, and the moving logo strip pauses when you hover over it, focus it, tap it or press Enter. If your device is set to reduce motion, the film and logos stay still.
Text and controls meet WCAG colour contrast requirements, including text shown over photographs and film.
Forms have visible labels, tell you which fields are optional, support your browser’s autofill for your own details, and explain any problem in words, moving you to the field that needs attention.
Pages adapt to phones and to browser zoom without content being cut off or needing sideways scrolling.

How we check it

We test every page with automated accessibility testing (axe) at desktop and phone sizes, including each step of our forms, and we check keyboard use, visible focus, zoom, reduced-motion settings and the contrast of text over photographs and film.

Content we don’t control

Some links lead to other services, such as our online job application, a magazine feature hosted by Issuu, and our staff login. Those services are run by others and may not meet the same standard. If one of them gets in your way, contact us and we’ll help another way.

Tell us about a problem
