Accessibility
Energy Resources Australia recognises the importance of providing a website that is accessible to everyone and easy to use. On this page we outline our ongoing commitment to making our online services accessible and explain the accessibility features of this site.
Accessibility features on this website
The following features have been introduced to improve navigation for screen reader users, keyboard navigation and users of text-only browsers.
Access keys
The following keyboard shortcuts can be used instead of a mouse for navigation; these allow quick and easy access to key areas of the site. These keys have been chosen to follow internationally recognised website guidelines where possible.

Use of access keys depends on the type of browser being used:
- Internet Explorer 5 or higher: Hold down the ALT key, press the chosen access key, and then press Enter to activate the link.
- Internet Explorer 5 or higher for Mac: Hold down the Control key, press the chosen access key, and then press Enter to activate the link.
- Netscape 6 or higher: Hold down the ALT key, then press the chosen access key.
Increasing the text size
We have used style sheets throughout, and users can increase or decrease the size of the text in two ways:
- Use the browser 'Text Size' options in the 'View' menu
- Click the text size control options denoted by different size letter A's at the top of each page
Other features
HTML heading tags are used to convey the document layout and make it simpler for screen readers to navigate using a list of headers. Navigation menus are marked up as HTML lists which ensures that the number of links in the list is read out at the start and also that they can be skipped easily.
Our pages are optimised to be viewed at a screen resolution of 1200 x 780 pixels, however the design also accommodates users viewing at 800 x 600 or 1280 x 1024 pixels resolution.
Commitment to accessibility
We acknowledge the importance of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) of 1992 and the World Wide Web Consortiums' (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) all of which state that provision must be made to ensure that all products and services are accessible to disabled users.
Energy Resources Australia has a commitment to making our online services inclusive because accessibility has a positive effect on general usability and we believe that websites that are accessible and usable benefit everyone.
We will continue to review, test and modify our website for usability and accessibility issues and aim to ensure maintaining compliance is part of our ongoing commitment.
