Accessibility statement

NextForce is committed to making nextforce.works usable for everyone, regardless of ability, device, or connection. This statement describes the standard we target, the measures we take to meet it, and how to report an issue.

Effective 1 January 2026

1. Conformance target

We target compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. WCAG 2.1 AA is the standard referenced by the UK Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018, by Section 508 of the US Rehabilitation Act, and by accessibility law in several other jurisdictions in which we operate.

2. Measures we take

  • Semantic HTML throughout the site (header, nav, main, article, section, footer), allowing assistive technology to navigate content reliably.
  • Keyboard navigation on all interactive elements, with a custom-styled and clearly visible focus ring.
  • A “skip to content” link as the first focusable element on every page.
  • Colour contrast that meets or exceeds 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text.
  • Alt text on informative images, and aria-hidden on purely decorative imagery.
  • ARIA labels on icon-only buttons and for any interactive element where the accessible name is not otherwise clear.
  • Respect for the prefers-reduced-motion setting: parallax, scroll animations, and heavy motion are reduced or disabled when the user has opted into reduced motion at the OS level.
  • Type sized in relative units, allowing browser zoom and custom font sizing to work correctly.

3. Known limitations

We are actively working toward full WCAG 2.1 AA compliance. Known areas we are still improving include:

  • Automated colour-contrast checks across all ancillary surfaces and hover states.
  • Full third-party audit by an external accessibility specialist.
  • Content accessibility of any PDFs or other downloadable files we publish in future.

4. Reporting an issue

If you encounter anything on nextforce.works that is difficult to use, hard to read, or inaccessible with assistive technology, please email hello@nextforce.works with a description of the issue, the page it occurs on, and the device and assistive technology you are using. We take accessibility issues seriously and will respond within one working day.

5. Enforcement

In the United Kingdom, if you are not satisfied with our response to an accessibility complaint, you may contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS). In the United States, you may refer unresolved concerns to the relevant federal or state agency. In India, accessibility concerns may be raised under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016.
