Web Accessibility
Phuture Design is working towards
providing websites which are fully accessible to all users with disabilities.
The Disability Discrimination Act, 1995 (DDA) effectively places responsibility upon employers and suppliers of goods and services to provide reasonable adjustment and, more importantly, to remove any barriers that could result in discrimination.
Since 1999 the DDA has covered public facing websites and internal systems even giving examples in its Code of Practice such as; 'An airline company provides a flight reservation and booking service to the public on its website. This is a provision of a service and is subject to the Act'.
All pages have been validated to meet level AA of the WAI web accessibility standards to ensure DDA compliance. They have also been validated to meet World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards for XHTML and CSS 2.0. This is to ensure the pages display correctly with currently available and future Internet browsers on both Windows and Apple Mac platforms.
