We are building Workhuman for all humans.
This means we are:

Embracing WCAG 2.2 ’AA’ standards

Using WCAG 2.2 'AA' as our guide for all new development work, both on this website and in our products.

Raising awareness

Educating our humans about the benefits of web accessibility through training and events such as our recent Usability Day.

Enhancing our processes

Integrating web accessibility processes and best practices into our product development lifecycle.

Building a culture of inclusion

Our Community of Practice brings together representatives from various parts of our business. They work together to drive and coordinate accessibility initiatives across our organisation.

Designing for users with disabilities

We follow a 'shift left' approach which ensures our designs consider the experience of users with disabilities and users of assistive technologies as a fundamental part of our design process.


We are working towards a framework to include users with disabilities as part of our software development process to help us identify accessibility and usability gaps and areas for improvement.

How we test for accessibility

Our teams are continually reviewing our products against the WCAG 2.2 'AA' standard, using a combination of automated accessibility tools and manual testing.


We use automated tools (such as Axe DevTools) for all new features being developed and are actively working on incorporating automated tests as an integral part of our release process.

Our manual accessibility testing approach includes keyboard testing, mobile testing and a variety of browser bookmarklets and tools. We also validate our user experiences with the most widely used screen readers including VoiceOver, NVDA and JAWS.

How to get in touch

We welcome any comments, questions, or feedback. If you notice aspects of our site or products that are not working for you or your assistive technology, please let us know.
