Why accessible websites are better websites
Digital accessibility is not only a legal standard, but a must-have in digital communication. Why accessibility is worthwhile for your company and why fast action is important:
From 28 June 2025, accessibility will become mandatory for many companies as a result of the Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG). But with an accessible website, you not only meet the legal requirements – you create a better user experience for everyone, because
- 7.8 million people in Germany have a recognized severe disability,
- for 10% of the population, accessibility on the Internet is essential,
- for at least 30% of people (with mild impairments) it is necessary and
- for 100% of users, accessibility is helpful.
