Accessibility

1. Introduction

RECOM is obligated to make its website accessible in accordance with the Federal Act on Barrier-Free Access to Websites and Mobile Applications of Businesses (Barrierefreiheitsgesetz – BaFG). The goal is to ensure equal access to information and digital services for all users, regardless of individual limitations. The basis for implementation is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.)

2. Status of compliance with the requirements

This website is partially compliant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. There are still some barriers, which are described below.

3. Non-accessible content

The following content is currently not fully accessible for the following reasons:

  • Missing alternative texts for images: Some images on the website do not have descriptive alternative texts, which makes use difficult for screen reader users.
  • Insufficient color contrast: Certain text and background color combinations do not meet the required contrast ratios, which may impair readability.
  • Non-optimized keyboard navigation: Some interactive elements are not fully accessible via keyboard.
  • Missing ARIA labels: Some interactive components do not have appropriate ARIA labels, which limits accessibility for assistive technologies.
  • Technical limitations: Some embedded content (e.g. from YouTube, Google Maps, SnapMagic, and SupplyFrame) is outside our sphere of influence and cannot currently be offered in a fully accessible manner.

4. Preparation of this statement

The website was evaluated through automated tests using tools (WAVE, ARC Toolkit), as well as manual checks including NVDA (screen reader), keyboard navigation and visual review. We are continuously working to identify and eliminate existing barriers.
