Accessibility statement

This page contains information about the accessibility on Hanken's website as well as contact details for feedback regarding web accessibility.

Hanken’s website www.hanken.fi is covered by the EU’s Web Accessibility Directive. The purpose of the directive is to promote access to and quality of digital services, information security, and accessibility of content, hence improving everyone’s access to digital services on equal terms. Hanken's website is also covered by the Act on the Provision of Digital Services that obliges the public sector and some private and third sector organisations to comply with accessibility requirements in their digital services.

Hanken’s website was published 12.10.2019 and the site’s current accessibility standard largely conforms with the directive. The website was built in accordance with the standard WCAG 2.1, level AA. The website is updated continuously. Hanken aims to fulfil the requirements of the directive both on its own platforms, and by working with subcontractors who comply with the directive.

Non-accessible content

The following content on the website contains shortcomings with regards to the accessibility directive:

  1. (WCAG 1.3.1) Info and Relationships. Some pages on the website contain empty container elements.
  2. (WCAG 1.3.1) Info and Relationships. Some pages on the website contain empty heading elements.
