Accessible documents policy

Accessible documents at the Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office

This policy explains how accessible the documents the Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office publishes on 바카라 사이트 are.

It covers PDFs, spreadsheets, presentations and other types of document. It does not cover content published on 바카라 사이트 as HTML, which is covered by the main 바카라 사이트 accessibility statement.

Using our documents

The Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office publishes documents in a range of formats, including:

  • PDF
  • Microsoft Word
  • Microsoft Excel spreadsheets
  • CSV (Comma-Separated Values)
  • ODT (OpenDocument Text)

We want as many people as possible to be able to use these documents. For example, when we produce a document we make sure we:

  • provide an HTML option where possible
  • tag headings and other parts of the document properly, so screen readers can understand the page structure
  • make sure we include alt text alongside non-decorative images, so people who can바카라 사이트™t see them understand why they바카라 사이트™re there
  • avoid using tables, except when presenting data
  • write in plain English

What to do if you can바카라 사이트™t use one of our documents

If you need to access information in one of these document types, you can ask for an alternative format. It will help us if you tell us what assistive technology you use.

How accessible our documents are

New documents we publish, and documents you need to download or fill in to access one of the services we provide, should be fully accessible.

Technical information about the accessibility of our documents

The Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office is committed to making our documents accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

The documents the Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office publishes are partially compliant with the AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations

Success criterion 1.1.1: non-text content

Some of our documents have diagrams and/or tables. Some of these do not have a text alternative, so the information in them isn바카라 사이트™t available to people using a screen reader. This doesn바카라 사이트™t meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 (non-text content).

We plan to add text alternatives for all diagrams and tables by the end of October 2020. We will ensure they meet accessibility standards.

How we tested our documents

We tested a sample of our documents in August and September 2020. The test was carried out by HMRC바카라 사이트™s digital content team.

We tested:

  • PDF documents

We decided to test these types of document as they are the main non-HTML formats published by the Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office.

What we바카라 사이트™re doing to improve accessibility

The Adjudicator바카라 사이트™s Office is:

  • publishing in HTML by default where possible, rather than PDF

We will continue to review and update this policy as our work progresses.
