Accessibility Statement

Schneider Electric's commitment to accessibility

At Schneider Electric, we are committed to inclusion and care of all so that everyone belongs and thrives. That includes ensuring equal access and usability of our Digital Assets for all individuals, including those with disabilities. We strive to meet world-wide accessibility standards, guidelines, best practices, and laws.

Applicability

This accessibility statement applies to the www.careers.se.com/ww website. It does not apply to other content or websites published on any of its subdomains.

The statement is based on a review of a representative sample of web pages by IAAP-certified accessibility specialists, using a combination of manual and automated testing.

You should be able to:

Zoom up to 200% without problems.

Navigate most of the website using a keyboard or speech recognition software.

Listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver).

Current state of this website’s accessibility

This website is partially compliant with technical standard EN 301 549 v.3.2.1 (pdf, 2,2 MB) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.

Parts of this website are not fully accessible. For example:

  • Some pages and document attachments are not written in plain text.

  • Some elements have poor color contrast.

  • Some informative images do not have image descriptions.

  • Zooming up to 400% might bring some overlapping and cut offs.

Listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver).

Compatibility with browsers and assistive technology

The Schneider Electrics careers website is built on an iCIMS hosted career site.

Historically, iCIMS has supported the JAWS screen reader (up to the 2020 version) used with Internet Explorer 11. Currently, iCIMS uses Chrome and Firefox with JAWS and NVDA screen readers during development and testing of all new products.

Compliance status

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.

Inaccessible content

Images on some pages do not always have suitable image descriptions. Users of assistive technologies may not have access to information conveyed in images. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 (Non-text Content).
Some links open a new tab without warning. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 (Non-text Content).
Some videos are missing Captions. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.2.2 (Captions (Prerecorded)).
Videos are missing Audio Descriptions or Transcript. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criteria 1.2.3 (Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded)) and 1.2.5 (Audio Description (Prerecorded)).
Some headings are not semantically marked correctly, so it could be complicated for screen reader users to get an appropriate page structure. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships)
Some images/graphs use color as the only way to convey meaning. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.1 (Use of Color).
Some images include text and elements with poor color contrast to its background. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.3 (Contrast (Minimum) and 1.4.11 (Non-text Contrast).
Some pages use images of text instead of text. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.5 (Images of Text).
On some pages, skip to main content links don’t skip straight to the beginning of main content, hero banner can be skipped on some pages. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 2.4.1 (Bypass Blocks).
Few pages have duplicate titles. This may make it difficult for users to orient themselves and find the right content. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 2.4.2 (Page Titled).
The text on some buttons / links doesn’t accurately describe what the button does, for example, you can see links “learn more”, “read more”, “download” etc. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 2.4.6 (Headings and Labels).
The change in the default written language is not correctly identified on some pages. This means screen readers might read content with an incorrect accent. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 3.1.2 (Language of Parts).
Country selector is inconsistently named. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 3.2.4 (Consistent Identification).
Some components have roles that do not correspond to the components’ functionality. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value).
Some components are missing states and properties which might make it difficult for the screen reader users to understand the functionality. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value).

Disproportionate burden

Some of the content used to apply for some types of licenses is inaccessible. The inaccessible content is published through platforms which we are transitioning to new arrangements. We believe that fixing the problems causing content to be inaccessible on the old platforms would be disproportionate.

What we are doing to improve accessibility

We are working alongside other departments and agencies to fix content which fails to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard.
