Accessibility

Western Australia Police, as administrator of the Leavers WA website, is committed to ensuring this site is accessible to as many people as possible regardless of device, technology or ability. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 level AA standard.

This site is built with Bootstrap 5, which provides a foundation of semantic HTML, ARIA attributes, keyboard navigation and focus management.

Accessibility features

• Alternative text for images, providing a brief description of meaningful images. Decorative images use empty alt attributes so screen readers skip them.
• Colour contrast meeting WCAG AA minimum ratios for text and interactive elements.
• Responsive design ensuring the site works across mobile, tablet and desktop screen sizes.
• Skip to content link allowing keyboard users to bypass navigation.
• Logical heading structure and semantic HTML for assistive technologies.
• Tables use row and column headings defined in HTML for screen reader compatibility.
• Text resizing supported via your browser’s built-in zoom function.
