Checkpoint: Why Accessibility, and for Whom

Question 1 of 5

• Disability is under-reported, temporary and situational limits affect far more people, and selling to EU customers brings legal duties
• Agree, because WCAG only applies when more than 5% of users are disabled
• Agree, but add an accessibility overlay script to be safe

Question 2 of 5

• Switch software only works on mobile devices
• The div needs a larger font size
• Switch users can only press links, not buttons
• Switch scanning moves between focusable elements, and a div with only a click handler isn’t focusable

Question 3 of 5

• 2.4.11 Focus Not Obscured (Minimum)
• 3.2.6 Consistent Help
• 3.3.7 Redundant Entry
• 2.5.8 Target Size (Minimum)

Question 4 of 5

• NVDA shortens long button text automatically
• The bin icon’s alt text is read instead of the text
• An aria-label=“Remove” overrides the visible text, which also breaks Label in Name for voice control users
• The button is missing a title attribute

Question 5 of 5

• Yes; e-commerce services offered to EU consumers are in scope, and the microenterprise exemption only covers fewer than 10 staff
• No, because the company isn’t based in the EU
• No, because event tickets are not covered by any accessibility law
