Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (Internal directory);

There is no text alternative. The image is hidden from screen reading software using an aria-hidden attribute.

Screen reader users will not be aware of the existence of the image. The number of direct reports and the total number of reports is read out loud as a number without and context, making the numbers which appear next to the images meaningless to screen reader users.

1.1.1 Non text content

Screen reading software announces the presence of the image. The image only has a decorative function.

When listening to a web page, screen reader users have to listen to a large amount of auditory content. Listening to images that add little to the users understanding of the page is distracting. Minimising the amount screen reader users have to listen to is helpful.

The placeholder image on the internal chart, and the persons initials on the external chart are capable of receiving the keyboard focus. When they receive the keyboard focus there is no keyboard focus indicator.

Keyboard only and some alternative input device users who cannot use a mouse need to be able to use the tab key to navigate through the page. Where the keyboard focus is not present, it is disorientating or keyboard only users. Because the placeholder image has no accessible name, when the placeholder image receives the keyboard focus, screen reading software announces there is an image with a missing description. On the external chart, when the persons initials receive the keyboard focus, the initials are read out loud, but without context this is not meaningful information. Screen reader users are unlikely to realise it is the persons initials that are being read oud loud.

The accessible name does not contain the text in the visible text label.

Voice recognition software users expect to be able to navigate to interactive controls by saying "click 'control name' (e.g., "click submit"). If the visible text differs from the accessible name voice recognition software may not activate the control. However, there are other ways by which a voice recognition software user without use of their limbs can activate the control.

2.5.3 Label in name

Tooltips

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The tooltip which appears when either the left hand navigation controls on the main buttons have the keyboard focus is not dismissible without moving the keyboard focus and obscures other content.

There is no affect on users but this is required for WCAG compliance.

1.4.13 Content on hover or focus

Group by and sort by radio buttons

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

When any one of the group by or sort by radio buttons receives the keyboard focus the group by and sort by action is automatically applied. Once either the sort by or group by action is applied, the menu containing the radio buttons closes.

The change is disorientating for screen reader users who cannot see the screen and partially sighted users because they are not expecting a change as soon as the radio buttons receives the keyboard focus. Because the menu closes as soon as a button receives the keyboard focus, it is very laborious for keyboard only users (including screen reader users) to select a radio button. To select an option from further down the list using the keyboard, the user has to reopen the sort by or group by menu to progress to the next item.

Organisational chart

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

When screen reader users progress through the page using the virtual focus (down arrow), the chart reads left to right, not top to bottom left to right.

The natural way of reading the chart is to read the highest individual first and then read all of their direct reports. Screen reading software however is reading left to right, not top to button left to right. This means that direct reports to the left of the manager are read before the manager and direct reports to the right of the manager on the chart are read after the manager. It is therefore difficult to tell who is the manager and who is the direct report.

1.3.2 Meaningful sequence

Tooltips

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

On mouse hover, the tooltip appears, which obscures other content.

Some users with dexterity difficulties cannot move the mouse at all. If the mouse pointer is resting over the triggering control, users may never be able to see the content behind the tooltip. Other users with difficulty moving the pointer may accidentally trigger the tooltip, which will be frustrating if they are trying to interact with the content that is being obscured.

1.4.13 Content on hover or focus

Organisational chart

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The organisational chart is capable of receiving the keyboard focus (a black border appears around the edge of the organisational chart when it has the keyboard focus). When the organisational chart receives the keyboard focus, screen reading software announces "Safeguarding and quality assurance". No role is announced for the chart.

When a component receives the keyboard focus, if it has been marked up correctly, a role is announced. For example if a link receives the keyboard focus, the word link is announced. Announcing the role means that users know what the function of that component is. Without a role, screen reader users will not understand how to interact with the component. In this case screen reader users will not realise they have reached the organisational chart.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will not be aware that the table is a table. Understanding tabular content for users who cannot see the screen is difficult. Screen reading software has specific navigation tools that allow screen reader users to more effectively navigate around the table. Without these navigation features the table is difficult to understand. A correctly marked up table will also announce header cells (cells which describe content, typically the top row and first column) as the user navigates between data cells (the raw data), making the content easier to understand. Without having header cells announced at the same time as data cells, the information in the table is difficult to understand.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will not be aware of the information that the styling of the text is attempting to convey. However this information is not crucial to the user experience. Some semantic tags are not announced by screen reading software even when correctly marked up. Other semantic tags are only announced by screen reading software if the user changes the settings on their screen reading software.

1.3.1 Info and relationships

Role planned hire date

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The date picker only opens when users press the spacebar. Most buttons work on both spacebar and enter. How to open the date picker is not described to users.

Some keyboard only users will not work out how to open the date picker.

3.3.2 Labels and instructions

Advanced search inputs (Person name, person email, person phone, person employee bio, person LinkedIn, role job title, role job description, role planned hire date, role directorate, role service, role unit role team, person work tel no, role post bo, Peron maternity?, role declaration of interest, role qualified social worker, role safety critical post)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control does not have an accessible name.

Screen reader users typically navigate between interactive controls using the tab key. When NVDA screen reader users navigate to the control there is no description of the control announced by screen reading software. NVDA Screen reader users who cannot see the screen are unlikely to be able to operate the control because they will not know what the purpose of the control is. JAWS screen reading software announces the control names as expected

4.1.2 Name role value

Directory and chart buttons (320px with screen)

Organimi (External chart);

When the directory or chart view button is activated, it changes from grey to purple. The difference in colour contrast is only 1.76:1 between the active and inactive states.

Some partially sighted and colour blind users will not be able to perceive the difference in colour. These users may be unsure as to whether or not the directory view or chart view is showing.

1.4.1 Use of colour

The editable text controls only have a 1.74:1 colour contrast against the background.

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The colour contrast of the boundary of the control is only 1.74:1 against the background.

Some partially sighted users may be unable to determine the mouse hit area for the control and therefore not able to operate the control.

1.4.11 Non-text contrast

Search placeholder text

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The text colour contrast is only 2.49:1 against the background.

Where the text colour contrast is poor, partially sighted users may either struggle to read the text or not be able to read the text at all.

1.4.3 Contrast minimum

Search results pin

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

When the control is activated the organogram focusses in open the selected individual. The keyboard focus is not moved to the selected individual and the selected individual is not directly after the search results pin button in the DOM.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will not be aware that the new content has appeared. They are not likely to find the new content easily as they progress the virtual focus.

2.4.3 Focus order

Role planned hire date

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The date picker tool is not read out loud intelligibly by screen reading software.

Screen reader users are very unlikely to be able to select a date from the date picker tool.

1.3.1 Name role value

Show hide direct reports and all reports buttons (people the person manages)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The target size is less than 24X24 pixels and the centre of the target is less than 12 pixels from another interactive component.

Users with dexterity difficulties who have difficulty controlling the mouse or performing precise taps on mobile screens may struggle or not be able to operate the control.

2.5.8 Target size

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The target size is less than 24X24 pixels and the centre of the target is less than 12 pixels from another interactive component. The other component which is bordering the show / hide advanced search.

Users with dexterity difficulties who have difficulty controlling the mouse or performing precise taps on mobile screens may struggle or not be able to operate the control.

2.5.8 Target size

Show hide direct reports and all reports buttons (people the person manages). This includes show hid reports on the external chart view on a 320px width screen.

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. If no button role has been assigned screen reader users who cannot see the screen may not realise the button is a button.

4.1.2 Name role value

Show / hide advanced search

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. If no button role has been assigned screen reader users who cannot see the screen may not realise the button is a button.

4.1.2 Name role value

Role planned hire date

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software. It is announced as an editable field.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. However, for the role planned hire date the control is announced by screen reading software as an editable text field. Screen reader users will therefore try and type in a date (which is not possible) rather than opening the date picker.

4.1.2 Name role value

Search results pin and details buttons

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software. It is announced as an editable field.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. However, for the role planned hire date the control is announced by screen reading software as an editable text field. Screen reader users will therefore try and type in a date (which is not possible) rather than opening the date picker.

4.1.2 Name role value

Remove pin button

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. However, for the role planned hire date the control is announced by screen reading software as an editable text field. Screen reader users will therefore try and type in a date (which is not possible) rather than opening the date picker.

4.1.2 Name role value

I' button, chart view 320px width screen

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The control is not announced as a button by screen reading software.

When a screen reader user reaches a control, screen reading software announces the role of a control (e.g. 'button') if that role has been programmatically assigned. However, for the role planned hire date the control is announced by screen reading software as an editable text field. Screen reader users will therefore try and type in a date (which is not possible) rather than opening the date picker.

-Directory button (320px width screen external chart)
-Chart button (320px width screen external chart)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The button does not have an accessible name.

NVDA screen reading software does not announce a button name. NVDA screen reading software simply states 'Button' without describing the function of the button. JAWS screen reading software generally does describe the name of the button from the tooltip.

4.1.2 Name role value

Sidebar links
-View as directory
-View as photoboard
-View as chart

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The control consists of a link inside a button <a><button></button></a>. The button does not have an accessible name. Each control receives the keyboard focus twice. NVDA screen reading software announces the links <a> intelligibly. However the button are announced with a long string of characters before announcing a button name. JAWS screen reading software describes the buttons as 'unlabelled 0 button'.

Having both buttons and links nested inside one another with confusing names makes the purpose of the control difficult to determine for screen reader users who cannot see the screen.

4.1.2 Name role value

Show hide direct reports and all reports buttons (people the person manages). This includes show hide reports on the external chart view on a 320px width screen.

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The button does not have an accessible name.

Screen reading software ignores the button. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not able to show and hide reports (the people who work for an individual).

4.1.2 Name role value

Close button on details dialog and download prints dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The button does not have an accessible name.

Screen reading software does not describe the purpose of the button. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not able to close the dialog.

4.1.2 Name role value

Close advanced search (X)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The button does not have an accessible name.

Screen reading software ignores the button. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not able to close the dialog.

4.1.2 Name role value

I' button on the chart view, 320px width screen

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The button does not have an accessible name.

Screen reading software ignores the button. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not able to close the dialog.

4.1.2 Name role value

Close advanced search (X)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

When activated the button disappears. The keyboard focus is not sent to a location. When the user activates the tab button the after closing the 'Close advanced search (X)' button the keyboard focus is sent to the chart. If screen reader users press the down arrow to read out loud the page contents after the advanced search button has been activated the virtual focus (what screen reading software is reading) is sent to the beginning of the page.

It is not logical to send the keyboard focus to the chart or the screen reader virtual focus to the beginning of the page after closing the advanced search button. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will be disorientated.

2.4.3 Focus order

Directory and chart buttons (320px with screen)

Organimi (External chart);

When the button is pressed the pressed state is not expressed programmatically.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will not know that the button has been pressed.

4.1.2 Name role value

Hide advanced search

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The icon used to indicate the purpose of the button only has a 2.68:1 contrast against the background.

Where the icon colour contrast is poor, partially sighted users may either struggle to decipher the icon or not be able to perceive the icon at all.

1.4.11 Non-text contrast

Search results table headers (Name, title, Match)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The headers are marked up as buttons (role="button"). This is presumably to facilitate a change in the sort order.

Activating the header buttons does not change the sort order. The sort order does not change on mouse click either. Screen reader users may attempt to change the sort order only to find the sort order does not change.

4.1.2 Name role value

Group by and sort by radio buttons

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

When navigating the radio group using the arrow keys with screen reading software turned on, when the user reaches the last radio button, if the user presses the down arrow, the virtual focus starts to read the next element after the last radio button.

Screen reader users expect that when the user reaches the last control in the radio group and presses the down arrow, the keyboard focus is moved to the first control. At present, with screen reading software turned on, when the user reaches the last control in the radio group using the arrow keys, if the user presses the down arrow, screen reading software starts to read the next element after the current radio button group. This makes it difficult for screen reader users who cannot see the screen to identify what elements are in the radio button group.

2.4.3 Focus order

Rows per page

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The currently selected option is indicated by a different background colour. This colour only has a 1.12:1 contrast against the background.

Partially sighted users may not realise which is the currently selected option in the listbox.

1.4.11 Non-text contrast

Show hide direct reports and all reports buttons (people the person manages). This includes show hid reports on the external chart view on a 320px width screen.

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

The state of the accordion is not programmatically determined.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will find it difficult to determine whether or not the accordion (the people who the individual manages) is open or closed.

4.1.2 Name role value

Organisational chart (standard size)

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

It is difficult for screen reader users who cannot see the screen to tell which level they are in the tree.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen struggle to understand the chart.

1.3.1 Info and relationships

Organisational chart (320px width screen)

Organimi (External chart);

It is difficult for screen reader users who cannot see the screen to tell which level they are in the tree.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen struggle to understand the chart.

1.3.1 Info and relationships

Details dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The dialog cannot be opened using the keyboard.

Keyboard only users and screen reader users who cannot see the screen cannot open the dialog.

2.1.1 Keyboard

Details dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

When the dialog is opened screen reading software does not announce a specific name for the dialog. The dialog has no accessible name. There has been an attempt to create an accessible name using and aria-labelledby attribute (aria-labelledby="flip-dialog-title"). However there is not a corresponding id attribute on another tag.

When the dialog is opened, the purpose of the dialog is not announced to screen reader users. Screen reader users may be unsure as to what the purpose of the dialog is.

4.1.2 Name role value

Details dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

There is no aria-modal attribute for the dialog.

This has no effect on screen reader users as the modal role is not declared. However future assistive technology may declare the modal role.

4.1.2 Name role value

Details dialog boundary edge

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The edge of the dialog has a less than 3:1 colour contrast with the rest of the page.

Some partially sighted users may not realise that the dialog is a dialog, because the edges of the dialog are not distinct.

1.4.11 Non-text contrast

Details dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

On a window size 1366px width by 768px height on 200% browser zoom, some text is missing from the dialog. Users are not able to scroll to see the missing text.

Partially sighted users often increase the browser zoom in order to see more clearly what is on the page. Using the browser zoom is usually more efficient than using screen magnification software, as it is easy to miss important content when using screen magnification software. Because there is loss of text, partially sighted users may miss this content or have to reduce the browser zoom which may make the website difficult or impossible to read.

1.4.4 Resize text

Details dialog

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

On a 320px width screen on the chart view, if users activate the 'I' button to see more about an individual the screen goes blank. On the directory view the details dialog text is truncated on a 320px with scree.

Mobile phone users and partially sighted users with very high levels of browser zoom are unable to access the affected content.

1.4.10 Reflow

Details dialog tabpanel

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

There is no tabpanel role.

Screen reader users may not be aware which part of the page is the main content of the tab.

4.1.2 Name role value

Details tab green line

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The green line which indicate the presence of a tab panel have a less than 3:1 colour contrast against the background.

Partially sighted users may not realise that a tab list is present. Partially sighted keyboard only users may therefore struggle to operate the tab panel. For this tab panel, it is important that keyboard only users realise the tab list is a tab list, because users cannot use the tab key to navigate between tabs. In order for keyboard only users to realise that they have to use the arrow keys to navigate between the tabs, they need some kind of graphic or instruction to indicate the presence of the tab list.

1.4.11 Non-text contrast

Group by and sort by radio buttons

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The filter is applied when a checkbox radio button is selected.

Applying the filter when a radio button is selected is very disorientating for screen reader users. Screen reader users who cannot see the screen do not expect the page content to change when a radio button is selected.

3.2.2 On input

Group by results (which appear on the left hand side of the page).

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

Filter success messages are not announced as they appear to screen reader users.

Sighted users are immediately aware the filter has been applied. However screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not aware when the filter has been applied.

4.1.3 Status messages

Search results status message 'Results X of X'

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

Search results success messages are not announced as they appear to screen reader users (e.g. in screenshot this is 'Results 10 of 311').

Sighted users are immediately aware the search results have appeared. However screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not aware when search results have appeared.

4.1.3 Status messages

There's nothing here (which appears on the directory view when there are no search results)

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

Search results success messages are not announced as they appear to screen reader users (the text 'There's nothing here').

Sighted users are immediately aware the search results have appeared. However screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not aware when search results have appeared.

4.1.3 Status messages

Numbers of search results returned e.g. ('1-24 of 311')

Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

Search results success messages are not announced as they appear to screen reader users. On the directory view, the number of search results appears as a number on the bottom right of the page.

Sighted users are immediately aware the search results have appeared. However screen reader users who cannot see the screen are not aware when search results have appeared

4.1.3 Status messages

Search text input

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

As the user is editing the control, search results appear. There is no search button or equivalent. There is no warning to users that search results appear as the user types.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will not realise that the content of the page has changed after they have entered a search term.

3.2.2 On input

Directory tree view (only visible on the external chart on 320px width screen)

Organimi (External directory);

There is no accessible name for the treeview.

Screen reader users who cannot see the screen will be unsure as to what the purpose of the treeview is.

4.1.2 Name role value

Directory tree view (only visible on the external chart on 320px width screen)

Organimi (External directory);

Users are not able to navigate to the treeview using the tab key. Users should be able to tab to the first tree item item using the tab key. At the moment users can only navigate to the tag which contains the tree view using the tab key not the first tree item

Keyboard only users are not able to operate the treeview. It is very difficult for screen reader users who cannot see the screen to operate the treeview.

2.1.1 Keyboard

Directory tree view (only visible on the external chart on 320px width screen)

Organimi (External directory);

It is not possible to operate the treeview using a keyboard. Screen reader users on mobile devices are also not able to operate the directory.

Keyboard only users and screen reader users on mobile devices are not able to operate the treeview.

2.1.1 Keyboard

Directory tree view (only visible on the external chart on 320px width screen)

Organimi (External directory);

There is no visible keyboard focus indicator for the tree item (individual people within tree).

Keyboard only users and some switch access users rely on being able to see the keyboard focus indicator in order to navigate the page. Where the keyboard focus indicator is not visible, it can be very difficult to navigate and operate the controls.

2.4.7 Focus visible

External chart test / external chart

Organimi (External chart);

On a window size 1366px width by 768px height on 200% browser zoom, the words 'External chart - Test / external chart' are partially obscured.

Partially sighted users often increase the browser zoom in order to see more clearly what is on the page. Using the browser zoom is usually more efficient than using screen magnification software, as it is easy to miss important content when using screen magnification software. Because there is loss of text, partially sighted users may miss this content or have to reduce the browser zoom which may make the website difficult or impossible to read.

1.4.4 Resize text

Search results table on 200% zoom

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart);

On a window size 1366px width by 768px height on 200% browser zoom, the match column is partially obscured and the actions column is missing.

Partially sighted users often increase the browser zoom in order to see more clearly what is on the page. Using the browser zoom is usually more efficient than using screen magnification software, as it is easy to miss important content when using screen magnification software. Because there is loss of text, partially sighted users may miss this content or have to reduce the browser zoom which may make the website difficult or impossible to read.

1.4.4 Resize text

Details dialog

Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (Internal directory);

On a 320px width screen the affected content is lost. When users open the dialog, the whole screen becomes blank and users need to refresh the screen. Users are not able to reach the dialog.

Mobile phone users and partially sighted users with very high levels of browser zoom are unable to access the affected content.

1.4.10 Reflow

Page title <title>

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The page title <title> is 'Organimi'. Organimi is not a company that most users will be familiar with. The page title for all pages is the same.

When screen reader users are navigating between windows and tabs, the page title is announced. The page title is important because it describes the function of the page to users who cannot see the screen. Sighted users can quickly look at a page to determine the purpose of a page. Without a clear page title screen reader users have to listen to the page being read aloud in order to determine the purpose of the page, which is laborious.

2.4.2 Page titled

Whole page

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The same block of content appears on multiple pages. There is no easy means for the screen reader virtual focus avoiding the block of content.

It is tedious to listen to the same block of content with screen reading software.

2.4.1 Bypass blocks

Whole page

Organimi (External chart); Organimi (Internal chart); Organimi (External directory); Organimi (Internal directory);

The affected pages are not accessed through a process (e.g. a search or a step in a form). There is only one way of navigating to the pages.

Users with learning difficulties and screen reader users who cannot see the screen can often find page navigation difficult. Having only one way of navigating to certain pages increases the risk that the aforementioned user groups may fail to locate the affected pages. Adding multiple ways of navigating to pages that are not part of a process aids in page navigation.

2.4.5 Multiple ways
