SECTION 508 OVERVIEW
In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities. Under Section 508, all federal agencies must give disabled employees and members of the public access to this technology that is comparable to the access available to non-disabled persons.
The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Electronic and Information technology not only involves web pages, but client/server systems, hardware, documentation, copiers, and much more.
The Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board), an independent Federal agency, has prescribed a set of guidelines for defining what constitutes 508 compliance. The final standards were published on December 22nd, 2000. By law, all federal agencies must be in compliance with Section 508.
Please contact us for additional information.
Being Section 508 compliant is not just a one-time effort. New procurement of software applications and web pages must also be compliant. This means that web accessibility compliance testing needs to be integrated into the development life cycle, as an ongoing process.
