More information on accessibility

The Act on the Provision of Digital Services obliges the public sector to comply with the requirements of the European Union’s Accessibility Directive. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is an international guideline for the accessibility of online content. By law, websites and applications must meet the WCAG 2.1 Level A and Level AA criteria. The City of Helsinki seeks to offer at least an AA level of digital services accessibility in accordance with the WCAG guidelines.

Accessible digital services are easy to use for all users, including older people and people with various disabilities. When accessibility is taken into account, digital services can be used independently by as many people as possible.
