Accessibility statement

Saavutettavuusseloste: Oulunenergia.fi

The Act on the Provision of Digital Services 306/2019, also known as the Digital Services Act, came into force in Finland on April 1, 2019. The Act implemented the Accessibility Directive. Accessibility means the usability of digital services, ensuring that everyone can independently use online services.

The site's accessibility was audited in the winter of 2025, and the site is being developed based on the audit results. Our website is continuously developed to serve both current and future customers accessibly.

Status of Website Accessibility

This website partially meets the requirements of the Act on the Provision of Digital Services 306/2019. Non-compliance with the requirements and applicable exceptions are mentioned below.

Non-accessible Content

We are continuously working to improve accessibility. We update this statement as we correct deficiencies.

The following content and/or functions are not yet compliant with the requirements:

  • Deficiencies in text alternatives: The header and footer contain graphical elements that lack text alternatives or have text alternatives in English. The text alternatives for the buttons in the homepage image carousel are in English. The social media share buttons on content pages also lack text alternatives (WCAG 1.1.1).
  • Deficiencies in role and attribute markings: The role markings of menu elements are partially incorrect. Forms contain incorrect aria attributes (WCAG 1.3.1).
  • Deficiencies in heading hierarchy: The footer headings skip several heading levels. Some content pages also have deficiencies in heading hierarchy (WCAG 1.3.1).
  • Content that appears on mouse movement cannot be closed with the keyboard: Menu elements cannot be closed with the keyboard (WCAG 1.4.13).
  • Deficiencies in visible focus: After accepting the cookie modification, the Cookie Settings dialog remains hidden, but the focus is still on that element (WCAG 2.1.1, 2.1.2, and 2.4.7).
  • Deficiencies in assisted completion of personal data: Forms lack autocomplete attributes that would allow easy filling of personal data stored in the browser (WCAG 1.3.5).
  • Automatically moving content carousel cannot be stopped, paused, or hidden (WCAG 2.2.2).
  • Deficiencies in file link markings: The site contains some file links whose file extensions are not written as part of the link to identify the file link (WCAG 2.4.4).
