Implementing an accessible digital workspace is integral in building an inclusive workplace culture.
Accessibility is one of the key features of our Atlas proposition, driven by our passion for inclusivity and experience with accessible digital solutions.
Designed for all abilities
Atlas includes assistive technology and is available on mobile phones and other devices.
Accessible content
The shift to digital working has highlighted the importance of accessible content.
WCAG 2.0 standard
Following these guidelines makes content accessible to a wider range of people.
Atlas Accessibility Features
Modes
'Clear', 'Dark' or 'High Contrast' modes are available in Atlas and across all Teams apps like ConneX and Add It.
Use Case: People with certain vision impairments rely on High Contrast themes to see apps and content with less eye strain.
Keyboard only
Atlas users have the ability to navigate using their keyboard and TAB keystrokes sequence.
Use Case: Certain users navigate a computer using the keyboard rather than the mouse, as an example, while using a screen reader, working with a Braille keyboard, or other Assistive Technology.
Narrator
Atlas is narrator tested.
Use Case: For the blind or those with acute sight limitations, Narrator is a vital tool which will read off the contents of any page, window, or application.
Sentiment analysis
This feature provides Managers with insight into users’ behaviour.
Use case: People with mental health disabilities may benefit from sentiment analysis when their feedback is taken into account and gives insight on how to improve.
Accessibility Certification
When Atlas clients have achieved accessibility conformance, they are provided with an accessibility certification seal that can be posted on their digital workspace.
A statement of accessibility and being certified demonstrates our clients’ commitment to accessibility and provides details to users with disabilities that lets them make informed decisions about your organisation.
Microsoft 365 Accessibility Features
Atlas works seamlessly with Microsoft 365 which contains numerous other accessibility features.
In most organisations, only a small set of people contribute and share their knowledge and experience to a wider audience. Atlas Knowledge Centre features changes all this.
