This article explores common web accessibility barriers that are negatively impacting people with disabilities. These barriers can prevent people with disabilities from entering the workforce. The article's author is helping to conduct a study to help people who are blind or have low vision use assistive technology to overcome these barriers and attain employment. It will be interesting to learn of the study's results hopefully in 2025. #accessibility
