Accessibility
Event Job Search aims to provide information that is accessible to all user groups including those with visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments. By following the recommendations outlined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in their Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (WCAG 1.0) we have implemented the following features to enhance usability for screen reader users, keyboard navigation and users of text-only browsers.
Structured, semantic markup
This site's markup (HTML) is semantically correct, using HTML elements for their given purpose. Well structured HTML has semantic meaning for a wide range of user agents (browsers without style sheets, text browsers, PDAs, search engines etc.)
Images
All content images used in this site include descriptive alt attributes. Purely decorative graphics include empty alt attributes.
