Usability and accessibility
We are legally required to deliver websites and apps that meet accessibility standards. It’s also good practice to make all our online communication and services accessible.
By making reasonable adjustments, using the right format and designing with accessibility in mind, we can deliver products and content that can be easily understood and used by all users.
Here are some resources:
- Why accessibility is important
- Creating an accessible document
- Make your service accessible
- Complete a basic accessibility check
- Create an accessibility statement
- Accessibility statement for essex.gov.uk
Employees should also read our digital accessibility policy on the Essex County Council intranet.
