Our commitment to digital accessibility
Our goal is for everyone, including individuals with disabilities, to have full and equal access to our content and resources.
Bristol Myers Squibb is dedicated to providing everyone with access to our digital content. In order to inform, serve and engage our patients and communities, we strive to build websites, apps and digital documents that are equally usable by individuals with and without disabilities.
Accessibility is centered around recognizing that people may use the same digital spaces in different ways. Working to make our content accessible means ensuring that people with disabilities can use and engage with it, regardless of how they navigate the web.
Striving to meet or exceed industry standards
At Bristol Myers Squibb, we aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA as our target accessibility conformance standard.
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the most common and most accepted digital accessibility standards globally. We believe that WCAG 2.1 AA provides us the best framework for creating inclusive digital experiences.
