Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 78 has been developed by the Disability Rights Commission (DRC) in collaboration with BSI. This PAS outlines good practice in commissioning websites that are accessible to and usable by disabled people. This could mean that web designing will have to change to become easier to navigate and stop cluttered pages ... which in some ways is useful, but in some ways could become a nuisance. PAS78 may become law in the UK, to further inforce the act.
Following the publication of PAS 78 Guide to good practice in commissioning accessible websites, developed in conjunction with the Disability Rights Commission (DRC), BSI is working towards full compliance with the consensus on accessibility best practice as detailed in this document.
For further information on the compliance project, please contact the Online Marketing Manager

At BSI Group, we are committed to serving all of our customers equally. Therefore we have undertaken the following actions to ensure equal access to our services from our website.:
The standard font used throughout the site is Arial for easy legibility.
Wherever possible, we use live text instead of graphics to reduce the download time of pages and increase your control.
No information is exclusively conveyed using colour. This doesn't mean that colours are not used to organise information, instead it means there are also other, non-colour dependent ways of doing so.
Our pages are designed so that they are without horizontal scrollbars when they are viewed at a screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels.
All images, where appropriate, have an alternative text attribute. This means that when an image is conveying important information its content is described with an alternative text. If an image is used for decorative purposes only, the text attribute for the image will be left blank.
Where individual features make use of functions that do not comply with the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines we have made sure that there are alternative routes provided to the information
A link to details of how to contact us for further information offline is provided from every page.
Where a process takes multiple steps to complete (for example, forms) an indication of where you are in the process and how far you have to go is provided.
Style of navigation remains consistent through the websites.
We have attempted to comply specifically with:
Priority 1 guidelines of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and, where possible, Priority 2 guidelines. The elements covered by the Priority 3 guidelines are not, in most cases used by our sites, however as the sites develops such functions we will aim for compliance at this level.
