Accessibility Information

The Department of Labor, is committed to making our website accessible to everyone. We are making continuous efforts to comply with the letter and the spirit of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. For example, mouse-over "alt tags" identifying or describing graphics have been added to all the images on our site. However, we are still in the process of making all of the data tables posted to our website accessible to current screen reading devices.

Validation

We have used XHTML 1.0 and CSS that conforms to specification, as laid out by the W3C because we believe that usability and accessibility must have a solid foundation. If anything on this web site does not validate correctly, please contact the Site Administration, and not the Plone Team.

We have also endeavoured to achieve AA accessibility as measured against version 1.0 of the WCAG. We are aware however, that a number of the checkpoints of the WCAG are subjective — and although we are sure that we have met them squarely, there may be instances where interpretation may vary.
