Catherine, If you can't access an application form for any job then you have the right to demand an accessible form in the format of your choice from the employer. This comes under the provision of goods and services section of the DDA. If they refuse or delay in sending you an accessible application form then you should ask for more time to complete it. I don't know what type of employer this is but if its a public body, such as a local authority then they should know about accessible formats. Get back to me if you want further help.

As I tab around JAWS just says edit and doesn't say the label for the edit fields. The only way I can figure out what I'm meant to type where is by using the JAWS cursor to check what I've written after I've typed it. I'm just wondering if anyone else could have a look at this form and tell me whether they have trouble with it too. I want to tell the organisation that the form's not accessible if it isn't, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something. I also want to tell them how they can improve the accessibility of it but am not sure what to tell them. I'm using JAWS 7 and Word 2003. If anyone could have a look please let me know and I'll e-mail the form to you. And any info on creating accessible forms would be gratefully received.
