Accessibility to the Web

Improving access to our Web site for people with disabilities is one of the actions prioritized in Sépaq’s Action Plan for People with Disabilities.

Accessibility to a Web site means that it is designed so that people with disabilities or physical restrictions, whether visual, auditory, motor, cognitive, neurological or speech-related, can navigate effectively.

For its Web site, Sépaq is committed to the accessibility standards of the Government of Québec (in French only). They will be integrated progressively as the Web site it updated and improved. Full compliance of the site is planned.

Work Completed

So far, several aspects of the Web site meet accessibility standards:

Coherent navigation and presentation in each section.
Documents structured with tags and information divided into blocks to facilitate consultation.
Fonts that allow easier text enlargement.
The use of style sheets for uniform presentation.
Significant non-textual elements (photographs, images, graphics, symbols, etc.) have a textual equivalent.
The use of contrasting colours between the background and the words.
The absence of flashes and sudden movements.
