Accessibility Statement

WOGE Saar, Wohnungsgesellschaft Saarland mbH strives to make its website www.freundlich-wohnen.de accessible in accordance with the European standard EN 301 549 and the requirements of Section 12 No. 2 SBGG in conjunction with BITV 2.0.

Description of service

WOGE Saar, Wohnungsgesellschaft Saarland mbH operates the website http://www.freundlich-wohnen.de.

There, WOGE Saar provides information about its activities and allows visitors to contact WOGE Saar, e.g. via a contact form. Visitors can also view and enquire about apartments offered by WOGE Saar or request a property search. Descriptions of the advisory services available to tenants and prospective tenants can also be found on this website.

WOGE Saar is a limited liability company (GmbH) acting on behalf of the Federal State of Saarland in the field of housing and settlement.

State of compliance with the requirements

This website is currently partially compatible with the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 A – AA provided for under BITV 2.0. The non-accessible content elements are listed below. We are always striving to improve the accessibility of our digital offering.

Non-accessible content

The following content elements or functions are currently not fully accessible:

  • Images sometimes have no alternative texts (which would enable screen reader accessibility)
  • Video has subtitles but no audio description
  • The relationships between the content elements are sometimes not clearly structured, which makes keyboard control difficult in some places. This can also affect the clarity of the content or the connections between the content elements.
  • Button descriptions are still not sufficiently clear in some areas.
  • In some cases, the visibility of links/buttons is still a little too low (in terms of colour).
  • At 400% zoom, there are issues with how the elements are displayed (reflow).
  • In some cases, inadequate word spacings may interfere with font size adjustments.
  • Certain items cannot be reached using the keyboard.
  • Currently, image sliders are not easy to stop. This may make it more difficult to see their content.
  • Keyboard and screen reader navigation is only possible to a limited extent. Sometimes it is not possible to skip merely decorative elements. In some cases, it is impossible to navigate to relevant content elements.
  • The focus order is sometimes unclear or it is not evident which content is being focused on.
  • Page headings are sometimes not captured by the screen reader.
  • Page headings are sometimes not emphasised clearly enough or are not sufficiently meaningful.
  • In some cases, there are still no sufficient safeguards against input errors, e.g. before forms are submitted.
  • Links/buttons and the like are sometimes too small, so that they can be difficult to aim at when clicking on them.
  • At times, contexts change without warning; notably, changing the language triggers an immediate page reload without a renewed prompt.
  • Labels and error messages on the contact form are sometimes not yet clear enough.
  • The screen reader reads out foreign-language parts with an incorrect pronunciation, e.g. English text with a German pronunciation.
  • Not all content elements are available in a plain-language format.
  • Currently, any included PDF files are not yet accessible (workaround for the issue: accessible versions are available upon request – please send an email to info@woge-saar.de).

Planned measures:

We are currently in the process of actively revising the website. The plan is to revise the aforementioned not yet accessible content elements and functions in 2025, in order to make all essential content fully accessible in a timely manner.

Preparation of this declaration

This statement was prepared on 18/08/2025 and last reviewed on 18/08/2025. The included evaluation is based on an internal review of the content.
