Accessibility

Overview

As an Australian Government website, www.csa.gov.au, is required by the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 to ensure that online information and services are accessible by people with disabilities.

The CSA website has been designed to meet the Australian Government standards and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) best practice principles to ensure that online information and services are accessible to all.

Our website has been developed to display on all commonly used browsers and screen resolutions of 800 x 600 or higher. Download times have also been minimised to assist users from rural and remote areas and others with limited bandwidth capabilities.

AGLS Metadata Standard

The CSA website complies with the AGLS Metadata Standard. This is a set of 19 descriptive elements that government departments and agencies can use to improve the visibility and accessibility of their web services. It has been mandated for use by Australian Government agencies.
