Why is ADA Compliance Important?

The Department of Justice issued an opinion on website compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on March 18, 2022. While ADA Compliance for websites has been discussed before, this is the first time an official stance has been voiced about ADA Compliance for business websites. Click here to read the Article.

emerse design co. believes that the number of lawsuits relating to noncompliance will continue to increase since the DOJ has officially endorsed accessibility standards for business websites.

What industries are impacted most?

The top of your website priorities should include accessibility. The biggest driving factor in this direction has been the increase in accessibility lawsuits.

Some legal experts have referred to this movement as a litigation tsunami and it's attacking mostly small to medium-sized businesses. Thousands of lawsuits have been processed over the last two years. The impact is more than just notable. It has triggered the alarm for business owners and prompted the National Retail Federation to issue a warning to businesses. It urges them to start taking web accessibility more seriously.

Every industry that has an online component (website) has to comply with accessibility regulations, yet not all fields have been affected equally. Some of the most affected industries are as follows:

Healthcare Industry

eCommerce Businesses

Food Industry

Automotive Industry

Education Industry

Finance Industry
