Our Brief
As part of the company’s ESG strategy, 300 North are passionate about providing inclusive and accessible online experiences and ensuring equality of access to their job opportunities and online content. To do this, 300 North promises to meet the needs of those who need assistance breaking down online barriers.
Our Solution
The choice to implement the Recite Me assistive technology on its website for end-users was therefore a simple one as it provides the tools and adjustments required by 20% of the population to bring equity and equality to the recruitment process. On the 300 North website, Recite Me’s assistive technology includes a number of toolbar features, including screen reading capability, a variety of reading aids, stylistic options that can be customised, and an on-demand live translation service that supports over 100 languages. With the help of these capabilities, website users can tailor how they view and engage with content to their own needs.
- “As a recruitment business supporting our clients in finding talented individuals, it’s vital that we’re able to provide equality of access online to engage the most diverse of talent pools. In supporting job seekers with their next career move, we have a responsibility from the outset to reduce the barriers that prevent people from being able to easily interact with our services and apply for job roles. We are delighted to be able to provide this accessibility enhancement to support clients and candidates who encounter online barriers every day. This enhancement demonstrates our commitment to ensure that every person has an equal opportunity to develop their career”.
