Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to https://alink.euclid.co.uk


This website is run by Translink and is a replacement, as of January 2026, to the previous version. Whilst technically different, it is designed to provide the same aLink card applications functionality as before. We try at all times to make our website as accessible as reasonably possible to all users. In no way does Translink seek to deliberately discriminate against disabled users to access the website service in accordance with the Equality Act 2010, which means you should be able to:

  • Navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • Listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
  • Navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • Access the site with any device you choose

The structure of the site should make it as easy as possible to find your way around and the content should be easy to understand. AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

Compliance Status

Partially Compliant

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below:

URL:
/aLinkApplication

Description of control element(s):
Step counter at the top of the screen.

Non-Compliance Description:
The step fields fail the WCAG AA contrast requirement;
The contrast ratio must be at least 4.5:1 for body text, and 3:1 for large text

Exception Reason:
The step counter elements include inactive text elements that appear greyed out until the relevant step is encountered.
The inactive and greyed out elements are excempt from the WCAG criteria as per the following excerpt, Success Criterion 1.4.3 Contrast.
The visual presentation of text and images of text has a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1, except for the following: ....

Incidental
Text or images of text that are part of an inactive user interface component, that are pure decoration, that are not visible to anyone, or that are part of a picture that contains significant other visual content, have no contrast requirement.
URL:
/aLinkApplication

Description of control element(s):
All Step 2 employer input fields including name, address, email, and phone number.

Non-Compliance Description:
To comply with WCAG AA, fields must identify what their purpose is programmatically.
The employer-related input fields on this page do not have any WCAG defined field purposes set and cannot be auto-completed.

Exception Reason:
This page collects employer-related information including name, address, email, and phone number if the employer is paying for the applicant's aLink card.
The employer-related fields on this page do not match any of the WCAG defined field purposes and because of this the autocomplete field is purposefully set to "off" as per WCAG suggestion.
