The Agency Accessibility Loserboard

Background information

This Loserboard calculates a singular score for each government agency.

This score represents the mean average number of detected accessibility issues per page, across all pages scanned for each agency.

It includes all mobile/desktop views of each web page in the calculation.

The data comes from the New Zealand Government’s Centralised Web Accessibility Checker (CWAC) monitoring programme.

CWAC (Centralised Web Accessibility Checker) automatically scans government websites using axe-core. It doesn’t catch all accessibility issues (maybe 10-20%), so zero issues doesn’t mean an agency’s sites are fully accessible. Conversely, it also means the reality is probably 10x worse than this report shows.

Tips:

  • Share filtered results — search for an agency, then copy the URL from your address bar and send it to their communications team
