Accessibility statement
Building the future belongs to everyone. We take accessibility into account in our digital services. Our employees strive to communicate as clearly as possible in their work. We also require that all our partners take accessibility into account.
Accessibility is a statutory requirement under the Act on the Provision of Digital Services and EU Accessibility Directive. The provisions under these regulations apply to all digital services provided by public-sector organisations. This accessibility statement applies to Sitra’s website, www.sitra.fi, and the content we publish through the website. We published the accessibility statement on 22 September 2020 and updated it 24 September 2024.
We constantly educate our employees and partners about accessibility. In 2020, we have developed and will continue to develop our website to make it more accessible.
Accessibility on Sitra’s website
At the moment, most of our website content is accessible.
Attachments
We have made every effort to publish the attachments published after 23 September 2018 in accordance with the accessibility requirements. We have especially focused on making the PDF files more accessible, particularly in the summer of 2020. If you notice any lack of accessibility in our attachments, please give us feedback by filling the feedback form below.
Contents that are not within the scope of the legislation
The website also features some content that does not fall within the scope of the legislation and is not fully accessible. These include the following:
- video and audio recordings published before 23 September 2020,
