Accessibility
As a responsible insurer, Groupama has developed for over 50 years a very active prevention policy aiming at anticipating risks to protect people and property. The Group plays a leading role in public health and in 2004 the Group decided to get involved in accessibility, with the aim of making the Group's websites fully accessible and usable to as many people as possible.
Shaw Trust Web Accessibility
On 1st May 2010, Groupama Insurances was awarded Shaw Trust Web Accessibility accreditation for its website: www.groupama.co.uk.
Shaw Trust is one of the UK's most comprehensive website accessibility accreditation services. A national charity, it supports disabled and disadvantaged people to prepare for work, find jobs and live more independent lives. It is also the only web accessibility accreditation organisation to employ its own testing teams on a full time basis.
The process of achieving accreditation involved rigorous testing by people with varying disabilities and also a range of tests using a variety of hardware and software designed to facilitate the use of computers by disabled users. Only after all suggestions for improvement were adopted was the accreditation granted.
