How accessible this service is

This online service is partially compliant with the Finnish Act on the Provision of Digital Services 306/2019 except for the non-compliance listed below.

Inaccessible content

The users use a search function software (Swagger) in the interface to search for information in the service. The software involves the following accessibility problems:

(WCAG 4.1.2) The ”Select” element does not have any accessible name
(WCAG 2.4.2) The page does not have any title
(WCAG 1.3.1) Wrong elements used in the list elements
(WCAG 2.1.1) The scrollable area is not keyboard accessible
(WCAG 2.1, 2.4.4) No indication of a link leading to other destinations and opening in a new window

The PRH can only in part correct the problems above, as they are caused by software features.
