Finland’s accessibility laws, outlined in the Act on the Provision of Digital Services (Laki digitaalisten palvelujen tarjoamisesta), mandate that public sector websites and mobile apps adhere to WCAG 2.1 standards. This legislation aligns with the European Web Accessibility Directive (EN 301549), ensuring digital services are accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. The Digital Services Act enforces these requirements nationally. Tech Prastish can help ensure compliance by embedding accessibility best practices into software design, guaranteeing both legal and functional accessibility, and providing ongoing testing and updates to keep pace with evolving standards.
