How Can 508 Compliance Help You?
We’ve compiled a few common questions and answers about why federal accessibility standards are important, along with links to provide you additional guidance.
What can accessibility and Section 508 compliance provide my organization?
508 compliance is shorthand for a federal mandate that websites be accessible to any person, regardless of disability. Companies that achieve 508 compliance have more than just peace of mind – they can also proudly say that anyone can access their website comprehensively. With more than 20% of the U.S. population identifying as handicapped, ensuring your website is accessible increases traffic and user interaction. Accessible websites also allow for increased employee retention, increased productivity, and the ability to build a more diverse workforce.

Are government contractors and vendors required to be 508 compliant?
Section 508 compliance applies to all Federal agencies and any organization or business that holds a federal government contract. However, many non-federal websites are legally required to be accessible under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which requires any organization that receives federal funding or assistance to be accessible to people with disabilities.
How do I know my organization’s content is 508 compliant and accessible?
Organizations that are required to be 508 compliant and accessible need to meet AA standards of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These guidelines include but are not limited to: contrast, color choice, plain language use, appropriate metadata tagging, subtitles, adaptable design or plugins, clear labels, and keyboard navigation. This includes all website content, emails, applications, software, graphics, and PDFs or other digital documents produced by the organization.
