Simply stating, ???Yes, we are accessible??? does not
cut it. Typically, the page is divided into smaller sections, each describing a feature or idea.
While no two accessibility statements are identical, many share some common ideas:
Introduce the topic: At the beginning of an accessibility statement, explain what
the page is for, and how the audience can benefit from reading it. Declare the steps
you and your company have made toward making the website as friendly as possible
for disabled persons, including what specific handicaps are addressed.
Divulge navigation assistance: If the corporate website employs navigation aids,
explain their purpose and how to use them. This includes access keys, navigation
aids found in the metadata, and how users of screen readers can employ keyboard
shortcuts to properly navigate through the headings of a website. Access keys
should be explicitly listed, along with an explanation of how to use them in each
browser.
Discuss font sizing: Truly accessible sites use relative font sizes. This means that the
CSS file does not use hard measurements like pixels, but rather scalable measurements
like ems or percentages.
