Web Accessibility Recognition Scheme
Get recognised on web accessibility
The Internet is an integral part of our lives. By connecting the Internet through computers and mobile devices, one can easily access the Internet for the latest information, entertainment, online shopping, and services, or interacting with friends and families. Everyone, including people with or without disabilities, has the right to access the internet at the convenience at their fingertips. To enterprises and organisations, an accessible Internet not only helps business development but also contributes to building an inclusive society.
By incorporating web accessibility designs, organisations would:
Comply with the legal requirement on protection against disability discrimination
Fulfill social responsibility and project positive corporate image
Reach more customers by making online services easy-to-use and easy-to-search by everyone
Make online services easier-to-maintain by adopting the good coding practices of web accessibility design
Contribute to building a caring and inclusive society
