WEB CONTENT ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
At Owens & Minor, we’re committed to accessibility, diversity, and inclusion. Whether you’re using assistive technologies like a screen reader, a magnifier, voice recognition software, or switch technology, our goal is to continually improve your user experience. We are always working to enhance our website and other digital content in order to support and improve the accessibility of our digital assets. We strive to ensure that everyone, including people with disabilities, has full and equal access to our digital offerings.
POLICY STATEMENTS
To optimize the digital experience for all of our customers and clients, Owens & Minor looks to accessibility best practices recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in its Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). We work to maintain our websites and other digital assets in substantial conformance with the WCAG guidelines to make content more accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities, including accommodations for blindness and low vision, deafness and hearing loss, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity, learning disabilities, and cognitive limitations.
