Compliance level

The website fov.um.si partially complies with the Act on Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications due to the exceptions listed below.

Inaccessible content - assessment of disproportionate burden (Article 6 ZDSMA)

The Faculty of Organizational Sciences estimates that there would be financial consequences for it if the entire content of the website were to be adapted (translated into sign language and/or equipped with subtitles or otherwise appropriately adapted in accordance with the Act on the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications), as the scope is The content of the website is great. The Faculty of Organizational Sciences assesses a disproportionate burden by the fact that the financial consequences would be disproportionate to the benefit for the user. Information on the fov.um.si website is also available to users in other ways (telephone, personal visit). In addition to significant financial consequences, the Faculty of Organizational Sciences also took into account the internal organization, personnel and financial burden that optimization would require when assessing the disproportionate burden. A significant part of the content is also of such a nature that it changes and it would be difficult to ensure that translations are up-to-date (e.g. videos).

Regardless of the reasons described above for not adapting certain online content for vulnerable groups, the accessibility of the fov.um.si website is constantly monitored and individual elements of accessibility are constantly being improved. Nevertheless, due to a disproportionate burden, some of the published content may not meet all accessibility requirements as set out in the Act on the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications. In the case of online publications within the fov.um.si website, some documents that are intended for professional or narrow target audiences or that would represent a disproportionate burden due to their complexity are therefore not accessible to users with various forms of disabilities. However, at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences of the University of Maribor, we still make great efforts to ensure that all our content is adapted as much as possible to potential users who belong to vulnerable groups. In the future, we will make sure that we publish documents in an accessible format as much as possible.

Examples of such content are:

  • scanned documents in PDF format,
  • graphic elements in the form of images with captions (e.g. infographics),
  • videos,
  • various complex data tables.
