Commitment to Accessibility: Pearson’s Global Accessibility Policy Framework
Recognizing that accessibility is a constantly evolving landscape, Pearson created a Global Accessibility Policy Framework to guide our accessibility strategy as technology and user needs change. The Policy Framework allows each Pearson business unit to create and implement policies and processes that align with their specific customers, geographies, and regulatory environments. Pearson’s commitment to disability equity will continue to be woven into our culture, content, services, development processes, innovation efforts, and partnerships.
Level of Accessibility Compliance
Website
As of February 27, 2025
Currently the European Accessibility Act (EAA) requires all Information Technology Communications (ITC) via EN 301 549 to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, level AA. The new Pearson Benefits UK website (aside from downloadable documents) meets compliance WCAG 2.2, levels AA and some of level AAA. WCAG 2.2 AA will be the required standard by the forthcoming EN 301 549 update in 2026.
We will continue to perform incremental testing as the site changes and evolves to ensure that this level of accessibility compliance is sustained. The template for this site was created from the Pearson Benefits US site and has been retested to ensure that it maintains the same level of compliance as outlined in the Pearson Benefits US Website Accessibility Conformance Report (Word, 5.2 MB).
Downloadable Documents
As of February 27, 2025
An audit of all documents available for download via the Pearson Benefits US website was completed. All first-party PDFs meet accessibility compliance. None of the third-party PDFs meet accessibility compliance. We are in the process of requesting remediation of all documents created by third-parties. If you require a downloadable document to be remediated please email a request to benefits.answers@pearson.com.
