Accessibility Statement
Kamu – Web service Website
The University of Eastern Finland wishes to guarantee the accessibility of its websites in accordance with the law about digital services (306/2019) (in Finnish). This accessibility statement applies to the website Kamu – databanl at kamu.uef.fi provided by wordpress.com and its subsidiary pages. The website was first published on the 1st November 2017. This site has been updated on September 27, 2021 and accessibility fixes are underway.
This accessibility statement was drawn up on the 20st September 2022.
Status of Accessibility of the Digital Service
The WCAG 2.0 AA level criteria have been acknowledged on the website, and it is estimated that the criteria are mostly conformed to. Accessibility will also be considered in the future when the website is updated, and trainings will be organised for the content providers.
The accessibility has been assessed through self-assessment. All the pages have been assessed with SiteImprover and some additionally with Wave.
Non-accessible Content of the Digital Service
Kamu includes content that is not accounted for in the legislation:
- Content published by users or other outside operators, which is not produced, financed or maintained by the service provider.
- Office program files (e.g. doc, pdf) that have been published before the 23rd September 2018.
- Video or audio recordings that have been published before the 23rd September 2020.
Technical Deficiencies
The charto of the results of a study attainment is not accessibility.
The element IDs on some pages are not yet individual (WCAG 2.4.4., 2.4.9., 4.1.2).
There are links with no textual equivalents on two pages (WCAG 4.1.1).
Some of the files on the site are not accessible. As the accessibility criteria is applied to Kamu on 23 September 2020, files that have been published after the 23rd September 2018 but before the 23rd September 2019 are not accounted for by the criteria. Adjustments are still being made.
