Accessibility
Where we stand, what is not fixed, and how to tell us
Last updated September 17, 2026
Where we stand
Unlisted should be usable by everybody looking for work, including people using a screen reader, a keyboard alone, magnification, or a phone with one hand on a bus.
We aim at WCAG 2.2 level AA. We are not there on every screen, and the sections below say where we are not, because a statement that claims more than it delivers is worth less than no statement.
What works today
- Every page can be reached and used with a keyboard alone, and a skip link jumps past the navigation.
- Search, filters, the feed and the job pages carry real landmarks, labels and headings rather than unlabelled divs.
- Motion respects the reduced motion setting on your device: the drifting washes hold still.
- Text reflows down to a phone width without a horizontal scrollbar, and the layout survives browser zoom.
- Colour is never the only thing carrying a meaning.
What does not, yet
An internal audit on September 15, 2026 found these, and they are being worked through:
- Some controls are smaller than the 24 by 24 pixel target size, mostly small links in dense rows.
- Some supporting text sits below 12 pixels, which is too small to be comfortable.
- One piece of green text on the home page measures 3.93 to 1 against its background, under the 4.5 to 1 we want for body text.
A job listing’s description is written by the employer and rendered as they wrote it. We strip anything unsafe, but we cannot fix an employer’s own heading order or their missing image descriptions, and we do not rewrite their words.
If something blocks you
Write to support@unlisted.careers with the subject line “Accessibility”. Tell us the page, what you were trying to do, and what you use to browse. That last part is the one that makes a report fixable.
We answer within two business days. If something blocks you from doing a thing the product is for, say so and we will tell you how we plan to get you unblocked, including doing it for you in the meantime.
This is the same address as the rest of support, reaching a person and not a queue.
How we check
Automated checks run against the live site on a schedule, and they cover the things a machine can see: contrast, names on controls, landmark structure, heading order. They do not tell us whether the product is actually usable, so the reports above matter more than the scores. This statement is reviewed whenever the audit that produced it is re run.
