Accessibility

SSI is committed to making our digital content, services, and recruitment processes accessible to all users, including individuals with disabilities. Accessibility is an essential part of how we design and deliver our platforms, communications, and candidate experience.

We continuously review and improve our website and digital services to ensure they can be used effectively by the widest possible audience.

Our commitment

We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Our goal is to achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards across our platform and digital services so that users with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments can access information and functionality.

We continuously test our website for accessibility and implement improvements over time to ensure equal access for all candidates, clients, and users.

How we support accessibility

We follow accessibility best practices across navigation, structure, content, and design.

Navigation

A clear and consistent navigation structure is used throughout our site.
Logical tab order supports keyboard-only users.
Screen-reader users can move through page sections efficiently using heading structures.

Heading & structure

HTML heading tags (H1, H2, H3) are implemented to convey proper document structure.
Navigation menus are marked up with semantic HTML for easier interpretation by assistive technologies.

Images

All meaningful images include descriptive alt text to support screen readers.

Colors & contrast

We maintain colour combinations that meet WCAG contrast ratios for text and background.
Users may override colour settings using their own browser preferences.

Forms

Form fields follow a logical tab sequence.
Labels are associated with input fields to support accurate and accessible data entry.

Known limitations & delays

While we strive for full accessibility, there may be occasional content or functionality that is temporarily inaccessible.

If you encounter a barrier that prevents you from accessing any part of our site or services, please let us know. We are committed to addressing accessibility issues promptly and effectively.
