Compatibility with accessibility requirements

The accessibility requirements are set out in section 3(1) to (4) and section 4 of the HVBIT, which was issued on the basis of section 14 of the HessBGG.

This page is currently being revised to ensure that it complies with accessibility requirements in an appropriate and reasonable manner.

Disproportionate burden

Currently, the following sections are not designed to be barrier-free, since this would constitute a disproportionate burden in accordance with section 3(5) of the HVBIT:

  • The keyboard focus is almost always invisible.
  • Moving content cannot be paused by the user.
  • Error messages triggered by incorrect entries in forms are not output by screen readers.

Subarea:

Provision of all documents as accessible PDFs. It is not possible for economic reasons to adapt all documents contained in this section.
