Enhancing Web Accessibility: BCC's Commitment to WCAG 2.1 Standards

BCC is in the process of updating its webpages to comply with WCAG 2.1 standards. This work is expected to be completed in a few months.

WCAG 2.1, or Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, is an international benchmark for ensuring web content is accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities.

It is structured around four fundamental principles: content must be perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. Designing with WCAG 2.1 in mind goes beyond legal compliance—it's about fostering inclusivity, expanding audience reach, and enhancing the overall user experience.

Additionally, accessible websites often experience improvements in SEO and usability, benefiting everyone, not just individuals with disabilities.
