Our commitment to accessibility

All our people play a part in delivering on the promise of technology and human ingenuity. That’s why we design for an inclusive, accessible workplace to ensure all our people can do their best work every day.

Our accessibility initiatives bring together workplace accommodations, inclusive design in our offices, leading-edge technologies and encourage accessibility with our partners and suppliers.

Creating workplace accessibility

Providing tools that empower

Our Accommodation Support Tool, in 42 countries, enables our people to easily ask for workplace accommodations. From assistive technology, flexible work arrangements, and more, the tool is secure and human-centered.

Creating opportunities to explore

Our 54 Accessibility Centers are interactive spaces where our people can explore accessible technology that support their individual needs. They are hubs for education and collaboration, including with our clients and communities.

Technology that includes

Our IT organization is working to have all our people’s interactions with software, devices and services be compliant with globally defined accessibility standards. The approach spans environmental, technological and behavioral aspects.

Accessible and inclusive design of our offices

Our spaces support differences in mobility, hearing, vision and neurodiversity. Our global design standards include ramps, braille signage, quiet spaces, and more. And our office reservation tool has location-specific accessibility reports.

How we’re advancing accessibility inside and outside Accenture

With our clients

Our Global Accessibility Practice supports clients in their accessibility journeys. We offer assessments, training, strategy development, remediation support and more, all tailored to each client's unique needs. We help clients unlock the full potential of digital accessibility to drive business growth.

With our partners

A key partner relationship is with Microsoft, where we apply the built-in accessibility features of Microsoft 365 such as accessibility checkers; enhanced meeting tools like closed captioning in Teams; and customizable accessibility preferences in Outlook, to name just a few.

We’re integrating Copilot into our accessibility approach, using its AI-powered assistance to support writing, communication, content creation and workplace productivity.

Our collaboration with Microsoft involves providing ideas to increase accessibility of Microsoft products, implementing early versions of accessibility features and sending feedback on the implementations.

An inclusive approach

Accessibility is led by our Global Disability and Neurodiversity Inclusion Leadership Council which defines priorities, measures progress and supports intersections across the business.

Our intention is to foster a culture and a workplace in which all of our people feel a sense of belonging and are respected and empowered to do their best work and to create 360° value for all our stakeholders. Learn more about how we support our culture of belonging.
