We want everyone who visits The WIRE website to feel welcome and find the experience rewarding.
FIIG is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines and are continually looking at ways to increase the accessibility and usability of our website.
To help us make The WIRE a positive place for everyone, we have referred to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 . These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.
Considerations
This site has been designed and developed to ensure that its content is available to as many users as possible, including:
- people with disabilities who may use assistive technologies
- people with slower internet connections; and
- people on mobile devices.
If you rely on a screen reader or other assistive technology, you will be glad to know that we have designed the site to support the proper use of semantic markup. For example, you should be able to use headings reliably for page-level navigation.
