Limitations and alternatives

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of The Very Group careers site , there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations, and potential solutions. Please contact us if you observe an issue not listed below.

Known limitations for The Very Group careers site:

  • Imagery on site: Alternative text for some images is not descriptive of the images. We're working through updating these across the site. 
  • Element identifiers: Some Element Identifiers within the HTML of the pages have duplicated names. We're working through updating these across the site.
  • IFrame html code title attribute: An Iframe in the HTML code is missing a title attribute, we're working to add this back in.
  • Link underlines: Some of our links don't have the underlining to highlight that it's a live link. We're going through the site to add this back in where needed.
  • Bold html font: CSS styles are stripping out intended use of bolding on copy. We're investigating how we can change this in the html. 
  • Colour contrasts: We've spotted a possible contrast issue on foreground colours compared to background colours. We're working to update our imagery on site to make this contrast more prominent. 
  • Link colours: Some link colours are not consistent across the site. We're looking for all instances this takes place and will be making consistent.
