The requirements for an inclusive user experience are increasing massively with the new German law for more accessibility.<\/p>\n
At the same time, many companies are faced with the challenge of meeting these requirements in the best possible way with their own resources.<\/p>\n
UX teams and specialists who not only understand the importance of accessibility, but also know how to implement it effectively, are now in particular demand.<\/p>\n
In this article, I take a comprehensive look at the topic of accessibility and how it can be implemented in digital products.<\/p>\n

It defines accessibility requirements for products and services that are introduced to the market or provided to consumers after June 28, 2025.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is important to note at this point that the BFSG is still vague in some areas, which means that the exact application to various interactions of websites and apps often remains unclear.<\/p>\n Without legal expertise, it can be difficult to decipher the exact requirements, so in some cases a lawyer may need to be consulted.<\/p>\n I would therefore like to emphasize at this point that my contribution does not constitute a binding statement or legal advice and does not claim to do so.<\/p>\n Instead, I would like to highlight the opportunities and possibilities as well as approaches that we believe will help websites and stores to better approach the topic of accessibility.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Diese Dienstleistungen und Produkte sind betroffen” module_id=”Dienstleistungen” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The BFSG affects manufacturers, dealers and importers of certain products as well as service providers (see table below).<\/p>\n Micro-enterprises with fewer than 10 employees or an annual turnover of less than 2 million euros are partially exempt from the law.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Tabelle” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” max_width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n\n
