Accessibility status

This website mostly meets the level A and AA requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.2.

Non-accessible content

The website is not yet fully compliant with all accessibility requirements.

Attachments

The website contains links to attachments, such as PDF files, not all of which are fully accessible.

If you need the content of a PDF file in an accessible format, you can request it through the accessibility feedback channel.

Contrast of user interface elements

Some user interface elements in embedded forms may not have sufficient contrast against the background. This mainly concerns embedded forms whose styles are not controlled directly by the website’s own style sheets.
WCAG 1.4.11 Non-text Contrast

Date picker calendar function

The date picker calendar function in some forms may not be fully operable with a keyboard. Users can enter the date manually, but the keyboard accessibility of the calendar component has not been fully verified.
WCAG 2.1.1 Keyboard

Language of parts

Some content that is in a language different from the main language of the page, such as English project names or headings, cannot always be programmatically marked with the correct language. This may cause screen readers to read the text with incorrect pronunciation.
WCAG 3.1.2 Language of Parts

Form error messages

Some form error messages may not be sufficiently specific in all situations. The user may not always be told which field contains an error or what needs to be corrected. This mainly concerns forms whose functionality comes from a CRM system or a form plugin.
WCAG 3.3.1 Error Identification

Form instructions and required field indicators

Some required field indicators, instructions or placeholder texts in forms may still be unclear. This may make forms more difficult to complete, especially for screen reader users and users who need clear field-specific instructions.
