The Commission for Occupational Health and Safety and Standardization (KAN) strives to make its website accessible in accordance with national legislation implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
This accessibility declaration is valid as of 1 September 2021 for the koerpermass.kan-praxis.de website.
We are working on the processes necessary for continual improvement of digital accessibility to the information provided by KAN.
The accessibility requirements arise from Sections 3 (1) to (4) and 4 of the German BITV 2.0 regulation governing eAccessibility to information technology, which was adopted pursuant to Section 12d of the German Disability Discrimination and General Equal Treatment Act (BGG).
The compliance review is based on an initial internal assessment conducted in January 2019, which was expanded in July 2019 to include the 12 new WCAG 2.1 requirements.
The review showed the website to be only partly compliant with these requirements, owing to the issues described below.
