Introduction

Digital accessibility refers to the universal ability of different users and help devices to access the content and functionality of a digital product or service, regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities.

Digital devices must be designed in order to make sure that understanding, interaction and navigation are easy for everyone.

Digital accessibility concerns us all, because each and every one of us may be faced with a disability or impairment in the course of our lives.

Michelin is committed to implementing as many of the mandatory WCAG AA rules as possible.

For example, disability or impairment situational, temporary or permanent.

P.O.U.R. Principles

The accessibility guidelines and criteria have been organized into four design principles.

WCAG contents are based of principles P.O.U.R. These are Perceivable, Operable, Understandable and Robust.

  • Perceivable

    • Visual and auditory perception facilitated

    • Non-textual content has equivalents

  • Operable

    • Orientation of the user during navigation

    • Functionalities accessible with the keyboard

    • Sufficient time for the user to perform the actions

    • Content not likely to cause epileptic seizures

  • Understandable

    • Pages are navigable in a predictable manner

    • Users are assisted in correcting input errors

  • Robust

    • Compatibility with current and future uses, including assistive technologies, is optimized
