16 Helpful Accessibility Tips to Know

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 and the European Accessibility Act (EAA) are crucial for businesses to follow in order to ensure accessibility compliance. Aligning with EN 301 549, WCAG 2.2 AA conformance ensures digital products meet European and U.S.-based legal requirements. Enhanced user experience is another benefit of accessibility improvements, benefiting all users, not just those with disabilities. Future-proofing is also a key reason to adopt WCAG 2.2 as it integrates previous versions' requirements and accounts for new obstacles and considerations. To improve digital experiences, conduct comprehensive accessibility audits, supply role-based training, test across devices during development and testing, partner with accessibility experts, maintain production, monitor remediation progress, iterate to improve your accessibility program and processes, and design with accessibility in mind. Automation is key for improving digital experiences, with Sauce Labs and Deque providing comprehensive and accurate accessibility testing at scale.
