Legislation, Threats, and Opportunity
Now and in the Future: Getting Ahead of the Change Curve.
“Accessibility is a Civil Rights Issue.” - Gil David, 5 Seams.
In the United States and in countries around the world accessibility to Web and Digital Content for disability users has become a rapidly evolving and increasingly universal Legal and Business requirement for all enterprises.
Pioneering legislation such as the Americans for Disability act of (1990) and successor legislation have developed hand in hand with ongoing Social Change to create this important mandate.
As the language of Corporate Responsibility and the increasing demands for good Corporate Citizenship have developed so has the need for businesses to be confident that they are both compliant with these requirements now … and in the future. 5Seams customers are consistently ahead of statutory requirements in these areas. 5 Seams delivers this comprehensive confidence of compliance and leadership for our customers.
“In the modern business and social environment customers are increasingly reluctant to do business with companies that are seen as being indifferent to their social responsibility as it relates to fair and equitable content access.”
