Accessible procedures are a reality on the website of the Public State Employment Service (SEPE).
This entity, responsible for promoting, designing, and developing actions in favor of employment, meets the requirements to be an accessible electronic administration.
Indeed, the institution has the inSuit Tools™ web accessibility platform, which removes all barriers that people with disabilities might encounter when navigating the portal.

Solves web accessibility issues and errors in real time

This significantly improves the web accessibility rating of the pages and ensures greater compliance with standards.
The digital accessibility experts at inSuit manually configure this action, which is adapted to each specific case and the needs of the client.
