Wesfarmers Risk Management (Singapore) Pte Ltd
A number of accessibility features have been implemented across Wesfarmers Risk Management (Singapore) Pte Ltd to make the website more accessible to people with visual, motor or cognitive disabilities.
We are continually evolving and assessing the accessibility standards according to (these standards) and make the appropriate changes where feasible.
Below are some enhancements to our website that we consider beneficial to our users:
A text-only site map provides links to all the main areas and sub-areas of the site in a more accessible format. The sitemap is located on the bottom of the page or in the skiplink for screen readers.
Most links are text-based. If an image is used for any link, techniques are used to keep the text within the code so they are still text-friendly for screen readers, text-based browsers and for those who browse with styles off (this included consoles that cannot render cascading style sheets).
All link rollovers are high-contrast so they are easily distinguished from regular text and headlines that are not clickable.
Link content text is contextual when possible (eg. Instead of 'more', the link may read 'more business news') to make navigation easier for screen readers.
A text description (ALT) has been added to each image and/or tags. This will assist screen readers and users who browse the internet with images off.
All forms are built with accessibility in mind, including:
This website has been created using a 'mobile first' responsive design approach, its has an adaptable page layout, fluid grid and page elements, and dynamically resized UI and content, such as videos or images.
All fonts on the site use relative font sizing rather than fixed font sizing. Some users may find increasing the text size within their browser makes reading pages easier.
On most browser you can change the text size: Ctrl/Apple ++ or Zoom Out Ctrl/Apple +- to increase or decrease the text size
All pages are able to be printed. This will aid those who prefer to read articles offline and / or cannot read them on a computer monitor.
All code is validated by http://validator.w3.org/ according to relevant doctypes when launched to increase reliable rendering across all browsers, to enable faster downloads and for easier navigation for screen readers.
All pages on this site use structured semantic markup. Separation of structure (HTML), presentation (CSS) and behaviour (javascript) is practiced where possible.
This website meets W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0:
https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/Full information and a conformance level checklist can be found on the W3C website:
All of these guidelines must be balanced with our business objectives and are followed whenever feasibly possible.
Some tools online make it easier for people with disabilities to view and navigate web content.
