Owner-customer Membership and Benefits Portal – accessibility statement

This accessibility statement applies to the Owner-customer Membership and Benefits Portal on OP Financial Group’s website at op.fi.

The accessibility of the Owner-customer Membership and Benefits Portal was assessed by accessibility experts working for OP Financial Group on a project basis and by means of self-assessment with regard to digital accessibility.

The following systems were tested as part of the self-assessment exercise:

  • Accessibility on desktop computers has been tested using the Chrome web browser and NVDA screen reader software.
  • Accessibility on mobile devices has been tested using Apple devices, the Safari web browser (touch gestures).

Digital accessibility is regulated by the Finnish Act on the Provision of Digital Services.
