Dayforce is committed to providing client career sites that are accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance or ability. To support this commitment, we have adopted the W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA as a web accessibility objective. These voluntary guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities.
Note: This functionality is available only for external client career sites, you cannot add a statement to the internal Careers site.
If you'd like to include a statement outlining the commitment to accessibility on your external client career sites, you can do so by adding a default or custom statement of accessibility in Recruiting Setup > Client Career Site Management.
Role feature access: Recruiting Setup > Client Career Site Management > Statement of Accessibility
If you choose to include a statement, the site displays a Statement of Accessibility link at the bottom of each page of the site:
Depending on configuration, when candidates click the link, the site opens a new browser tab and displays either the default statement provided by Dayforce or your organization's custom statement.
To configure the statement of accessibility for your client career sites:
- Go to Recruiting Setup > Client Career Site Management.
- In the left-side panel, select an external client career site.
- In the Statement of Accessibility drop-down list, select one of the following options to include or exclude a statement of accessibility:
- None: The client career site won't include a statement of accessibility. This option is selected by default.
- Default Statement: The client career site will include the default statement of accessibility provided by Dayforce.
- Note: The default statement is currently available only in English. If you want to include a statement in additional languages, you must select the Link to Statement option instead of the Default Statement option and link to a custom statement for each language that your site supports.
- Link to Statement: The client career site will include a link to your organization's custom statement of accessibility.
- Note: You can provide a different link for each language that your site supports.
- When you select Default Statement or Link to Statement, Dayforce displays additional fields below the Statement of Accessibility drop-down list. Configure each of these fields, as needed, for your client career site. See Default Statement of Accessibility and Link to Statement of Accessibility.
- Click Save.
Default Statement of Accessibility
Before You Begin: The default statement is currently available only in English. If you want to include a statement in additional languages, you must select Link to Statement instead of Default Statement and link to a custom statement for each language that your site supports.
When you select Default Statement in the Statement of Accessibility drop-down list, Dayforce displays fields in which you can enter the name, phone number, and email address of the person in your organization who should be contacted for questions or concerns about the site's accessibility:
This contact information is inserted into the default accessibility statement provided by Dayforce.
You can click Preview next to these fields to preview the content as it will appear on your client career site.
Link to Statement of Accessibility
When you select Link to Statement in the Statement of Accessibility drop-down list, Dayforce displays additional fields in which you can add a separate URL for each language used on your client career site.
Note: The languages that are displayed are dependent on the configuration of the Recruiting Cultures client property in Recruiting Setup > Client Properties. See Configure the Recruiting Cultures Client Property.
Select the checkbox next to each language that you want to add a statement of accessibility for, and then enter the URL of the custom statement for each language:
You can also select one of these languages as the default language for the client career sites. In cases where candidates are viewing the client career site in a language without a defined statement of accessibility URL, the URL for the default language is used instead.
