Non-accessible content
Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of the ‘2025 SAFETY GATE’ website, we are aware of some limitations, which we are working to fix. Below is a description of known limitations and potential solutions. Please contact us if you encounter an issue not listed below.
Known limitations for the ‘2025 SAFETY GATE’ website:
Graphs and charts
- Graphs and charts – use of colour: Some graphs and charts on the website rely on colour alone to communicate information, which is confusing for people with colour vision deficiency. In charts where labels are not visually associated with the corresponding coloured section, clicking on the labels in the legends toggles the corresponding line, bar or section on or off, which allows users to check which label belongs to which part of the chart.
- The data visualisation components are not fully compliant. In the charts' main menu, the links are presented as anchor links, but the destination does not exist.
- Data behind the graphs and charts can be downloaded in Excel and other formats.
