Gradelog is committed to making gradelog.com and the Gradelog web application accessible to all users, including people with disabilities. We believe every contractor deserves equal access to the tools that help them do their job.
WCAG 2.2 Conformance Target
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
Accessibility of gradelog.com relies on the following technologies:
The platform is designed to be compatible with:
Skip Navigation Link
A "Skip to main content" link is the first focusable element on every page, allowing keyboard users to bypass navigation.
Semantic HTML
Pages use semantic HTML5 elements (header, nav, main, footer, section, article) to convey document structure to assistive technologies.
Keyboard Navigation
All interactive elements — buttons, links, form inputs, modals, and data tables — are fully keyboard accessible with logical tab order.
Focus Indicators
Visible focus rings are displayed on all interactive elements when navigated by keyboard. Focus is trapped appropriately in modal dialogs.
Image Alt Text
Job site photos and diagrams include descriptive alt text. Decorative images use empty alt attributes.
Colour Contrast
Text and interactive elements meet or exceed the WCAG 2.2 Level AA minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text and UI components.
Scalable Text
Text can be resized up to 200% using browser zoom without content becoming unusable or requiring horizontal scrolling.
ARIA Labels
Dynamic components (navigation, dropdown menus, dialogs, data tables, form sections) include appropriate ARIA roles, labels, and live region announcements.
Form Accessibility
All form inputs have associated labels or accessible names. Error messages are linked to their fields via aria-describedby.
Pinch Zoom
The mobile viewport allows pinch-to-zoom. We set maximum-scale=5 (not 1) to support low-vision users.
Dark / Light Mode
The app supports a dark/light theme toggle with persistent preference, benefiting users with light sensitivity or who prefer higher contrast environments.
Despite our efforts, some areas of the platform may not yet fully conform to WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Known limitations include:
Data-heavy report tables
In progressComplex as-built report tables with many columns may be difficult to navigate on narrow viewports. We are adding responsive table patterns with scope attributes.
Map component keyboard navigation
PlannedThe job site map component (Mapbox-based) has limited keyboard support. We plan to add an accessible table-based alternative view for job coordinates.
Third-party script accessibility
OngoingSome third-party widgets (PostHog session recording, Anthropic AI widget) may have accessibility gaps. We evaluate tools before deployment and apply patches where possible.
PDF export accessibility
PlannedAI-generated as-built PDF exports may not include full PDF/UA tagging for screen reader navigation within the PDF. Tagged PDF output is on our roadmap.
