Milebourne is committed to making milebourne.com usable by every visitor, including people who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnification software, speech recognition tools, switch devices, or keyboard-only navigation. As a recruitment and executive search firm serving the transportation, supply chain, and logistics sectors, our website is often the first point of contact between Milebourne and the employers and candidates we work with, and that first interaction needs to work for everyone.
This statement sets out the standard we work toward, the accessibility measures currently in place, the limitations we are aware of, and how to reach us if you encounter a barrier or need content in a different format. It applies to all pages published at milebourne.com.
Our commitment
Our goal is that anyone visiting milebourne.com can find information about our recruitment and executive search services, understand how we support hiring in transportation, supply chain, and logistics, and contact our team without encountering avoidable obstacles. We treat accessibility as a continuing responsibility rather than a one-time project, because standards evolve, content changes, and new features can introduce new problems even on a site that previously worked well.
This commitment applies to all visitors, including people with visual, auditory, motor, speech, or cognitive disabilities, and to people whose needs are temporary or situational, such as someone using a site one-handed or on a small screen in bright sunlight.
It also reflects how we approach our work more broadly. A firm that helps organizations build strong teams should not put unnecessary barriers in front of the people trying to reach it. In practice, that means accessibility is part of routine site maintenance and review, and we act on feedback from visitors who tell us something is not working for them. A report of a specific problem is treated as useful information, not an inconvenience.
The standard we work toward
Milebourne aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. These guidelines, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) through its Web Accessibility Initiative, are the most widely recognized international benchmark for web accessibility. They are organized around four principles: content should be perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust.
In practical terms, working toward Level AA means the site should function with common assistive technologies, remain usable without a mouse, present text with sufficient contrast against its background, give visitors enough time to read and interact with content, and avoid design choices that exclude people with disabilities.
We use WCAG 2.2 Level AA as the reference point whenever we design new pages, add content, or review the existing site. Conformance is an ongoing effort and never a permanent state. As the site grows and changes, we continue to test and improve it against this standard, and the measures described below reflect that continuing work.
What we have done
We have taken a number of concrete steps to make milebourne.com more accessible. The measures below describe the main areas of work to date.
Semantic structure
Pages are built with a logical heading hierarchy and semantic HTML, including meaningful page titles and clearly identified landmarks such as navigation and main content. This allows screen readers to interpret the structure of each page so visitors can move directly to the section they need without listening through content in full.
Keyboard navigation
The site is designed to be navigable using a keyboard alone, so visitors who cannot use a mouse can move through menus, links, and forms in a predictable order. A visible focus indicator shows where they are on the page, and interactive elements are reachable without becoming trapped.
Text alternatives
Meaningful images include alternative text, so visitors using screen readers receive the same essential information as sighted visitors. Decorative images are marked so they can be skipped rather than announced, and links are written to make sense when read out of context.
Color contrast
Text and background color combinations are chosen to meet WCAG Level AA contrast requirements, supporting visitors with low vision or color vision differences. We also avoid relying on color alone to convey meaning, so information remains clear if color is not perceived.
Resizable text
Page content is designed to remain readable and functional when text is enlarged through browser settings or zoom, without loss of information and without requiring excessive horizontal scrolling. Layouts adapt to different screen sizes and orientations.
Known limitations
Despite these efforts, some parts of the site may not yet fully meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA, and we want to be transparent about where gaps are most likely to exist.
Some older documents available on the site may not be fully accessible to assistive technologies, particularly files created before our current accessibility practices were in place. Some third-party content or tools embedded in the site sit outside our direct control, so their accessibility depends on the providers that supply them.
We work to address these limitations over time as content is reviewed and updated. Where an older document cannot be remediated quickly, we can provide its content in an alternative format on request, as described in the next section.
Feedback and assistance
We welcome feedback on the accessibility of milebourne.com. If you encounter a barrier, find a page difficult to use with assistive technology, or need any content provided in an alternative format, please contact us and we will work with you to provide the information you need.
You can reach our team by email at contact@milebourne.com or by phone at +1 888-202-9809. It helps if you can describe the page or content involved, the browser or assistive technology you were using, and the nature of the problem, but we will assist you even if you can only tell us that something is not working.
Alternative formats are available on request for site content and for documents that are not yet fully accessible. If you let us know what you need and the format that works best for you, we will do our best to provide it promptly. We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports as quickly as we can and to keep you informed while an issue is being investigated.
Ongoing review
Accessibility at milebourne.com is reviewed on a continuing basis. Whenever we update content, add pages, or introduce new features, accessibility is considered alongside design and functionality.
Feedback from visitors feeds directly into this process, and reported issues are investigated and addressed as part of routine site maintenance. This statement will be updated as our accessibility work progresses and as the site itself changes.
Our intention is straightforward. A website for a firm that connects transportation, supply chain, and logistics organizations with talent should be open to every visitor who arrives at it.
If you need assistance using this site or would like content in an alternative format, contact us at contact@milebourne.com or call +1 888-202-9809.
