Accessibility Statement

Our commitment

HVACJobs.IO is committed to making our platform accessible to everyone, including people who use assistive technologies. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. Accessibility is an ongoing effort, not a checkbox — we treat reported barriers with the same priority as functional bugs.

Current status

HVACJobs.IO is built with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Shadcn/ui. Interactive components — including dialogs, dropdowns, comboboxes, and navigation menus — are built on Radix UI, which implements WAI-ARIA 1.1 authoring patterns. Pages use semantic HTML landmarks, logical heading hierarchies, and visible focus indicators throughout. Keyboard navigation works for all core flows including job search, filtering, and account management.

Known limitations

We are aware of the following accessibility gaps and are actively working to address them:

• ⚠Mobile screen reader navigation of the job search filter dropdowns has not been fully tested across all device and screen reader combinations.
• ⚠Some PDF resume downloads may not be fully accessible to screen readers depending on how the original document was structured.
• ⚠Charts and data visualizations on salary pages may lack adequate text alternatives for users who cannot perceive graphical content.

What we’re doing

We are working toward closing the gaps listed above. Our approach includes:

• •Regular testing with VoiceOver (macOS and iOS) and NVDA (Windows) on key user flows.
• •Automated axe-core scans integrated into our development workflow to catch regressions early.
• •Manual keyboard-only walkthroughs before shipping new interactive components.
• •Reviewing each new feature against WCAG 2.1 success criteria during design and code review.
