Is your product accessible?

During the pandemic, remote working has increased. Disabled workers have benefited from avoiding public transportation, but as organisations have moved to online platforms, the lack of accessiblty has left disabled workers at best frustrated, and at worst isolated and unable to perform their job. Large tech companies like Apple and Microsoft have been putting accessibility high on the agenda for a few years and have been able to benefit from  having accessible products for customers during the pandemic.

This article explores how you can identify if your product is accessible, and what to do about it.

Accessible design is just good design. It’s a misconception that it only improves UX for people with disabilities β€” it provides a better experience for everyone.
