Accessibility Statement
Vishay is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, regardless of ability. We are actively
enhancing the accessibility and usability of our websites and mobile applications in substantial compliance with
the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and other applicable legislation.
Our efforts are ongoing. If you encounter any barriers while using our website, we welcome your feedback and
encourage you to contact us. We will work with you to assist you in accessing the information, item, or
transaction you seek through an alternate means that is accessible for you and consistent with applicable law
(for example, through telephone support).
Our accessibility commitment
The following strategy and actions have been implemented for the accessibility program:
- Dedicated Accessibility team: Our efforts are guided by accessibility leaders certified by
the
International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP).
- Staff Training: We provide role-specific training across departments to embed inclusive
design
principles into everyday workflows.
- Internal Audits: Regular accessibility evaluations to evaluate and improve the
accessibility of our
digital platforms.
- Development Integration: We integrate accessibility tools and checks directly into our
software
development lifecycle to proactively identify potential barriers.
While the standards may change or evolve over time, we currently strive to meet the Web Content
Accessibility
Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA
andEN 301 549 standards.
