Accessibility

The Department works to make its online information as accessible as possible.

This section details why we need to make our website accessible and provides simple instructions on how you can view our website in a way that suits you.

Why our website needs to be accessible

To successfully meet the needs of the users of our website, we need to cater for people who:

  • are not able to see, hear, move, or may not be able to process some types of information easily or at all,

  • have difficulty reading or comprehending text,

  • do not have, or are not able to use a keyboard or mouse,

  • have a text-only screen,

  • have a slow internet connection – a common problem in rural and regional Western Australia,

  • are accessing information using a small screen, such as a mobile phone or a hand–held device,

  • do not speak or reliably understand the language in which the document is written,

  • are in a situation where their eyes, ears, or hands are busy or interfered with (e.g.working in a loud environment), and

  • have an early version of a web browser.

Note: No responsibility can be taken for the accessibility levels of external websites linked from this website.
