Accessibility Services

Making workplaces and services fully accessible and inclusive for everyone – employees, suppliers and customers

Creating an accessible and inclusive workplace for all

Accessibility and inclusion mean more than providing assistive technology. It means enabling every person to contribute fully, regardless of disability or impairment. That takes expertise, technology, training and knowledge transfer.

It also takes an empathetic approach rooted in a simple belief: everyone is capable of contributing fully and deserves barrier-free inclusion in the life of the organization.

With years of experience supporting global organizations, Atos is positioned to deliver enterprise-wide accessibility solutions and services that help you meet legal and ethical commitments. Together, we can help every employee enjoy a rich and fulfilling work experience and contribute their best.

Most companies still aren’t fully using the capabilities of people with disabilities, a vital part of today’s workforce.

What it means for you

Accessibility advisory

Create a work environment where all employees can thrive and contribute. Advisory services support diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives by addressing an often-underrepresented community. Guidance also supports regulatory compliance and helps prevent discrimination against persons with disabilities.

Accessibility testing

Accessibility testing evaluates websites, services and applications against standards like EN 301 549, Section 508 and WCAG 2.2, helping ensure they serve the widest possible audience and support legal compliance.

Accessibility as a service

Improve workplace experience for people with disabilities by combining scale, accessibility expertise, deep technical knowledge and an extensive partner network. Accessibility services improve compatibility, interoperability and compliance, helping build an accessible and inclusive workplace.
