Documents and digital tools must be usable by people with different abilities and preferences. Accessibility improves clarity and reduces misunderstandings that could lead to harassment or exclusion.

Key design practices

• Use semantic headings, descriptive link text, and meaningful structure.
• Ensure color contrast and scalable font sizes.
• Provide alt text for images and accessible charts.
• Keep consistent layouts and keyboard navigability.

Testing and validation: use screen readers, check with diverse users, and fix issues before publishing materials.

Tools and goals: choose platforms that support accessibility standards and universal design principles.

Harassment prevention tie-in: well-designed documents reduce ambiguity and help all employees participate respectfully.
