Your next AODA reporting deadline
Ontario businesses and non-profits with 20+ employees must file their accessibility compliance report by December 31, 2026. Covered public websites at 50+ employees must meet WCAG 2.0 AA.
Businesses and non-profits with 50 or more employees, and designated public sector organizations, must make covered public websites and web content conform to WCAG 2.0 Level AA under section 14 of the AODA’s Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation (IASR).
The website rule covers public websites, web applications and content published after January 1, 2012 that the organization controls directly or through a contract allowing modification. Scope limits and exceptions apply, including the exclusions for live captions and pre-recorded audio descriptions. Older content may still be subject to accessible-format duties. See the detailed website requirements.
Businesses and non-profits with 20+ employees must file through Ontario’s Accessibility Compliance Reporting Portal by December 31, 2026. Designated public sector organizations report every two years; their most recent deadline was December 31, 2025.
Organizations with 50+ employees and designated public sector organizations must establish, implement, maintain and document a multi-year accessibility plan, review and update it at least every five years, and post it on their website if they have one. Ontario’s policy and plan guidance.
More than a scan
Fortress focuses on website accessibility alongside a thorough, scoped website review. Within the agreed website-fixing scope, we address accessibility barriers and related issues such as empty links, duplicate IDs, broken links and identified orphan pages.
The assessment may also identify areas for optional services: PDF accessibility, website speed, security concerns, AI accessibility and third-party links such as maps. We discuss the findings, possible remedies and any separate costs with you. Explore other website service options.
Enter your website address. We combine automated industry tools and Fortress checks to uncover potential website accessibility barriers and help you decide on next steps. No email or signup needed. This automated scan is a starting point; some barriers may be missed.
You get: a no-cost automated PDF summary
A detailed report identifies accessibility barriers against WCAG 2.2 Level AA within the agreed pages and interactions, with keyboard and screen-reader verification as agreed in your audit scope. Your technology team can use the documented findings and recommended fixes to improve accessibility. Ontario’s legal website baseline remains WCAG 2.0 Level AA.

When we conduct the In-Depth Report, we may identify concerns in other areas of your site. Additional assessment and fixing services can be agreed separately:
Security observations are not a comprehensive security audit. AI accessibility requires a separately agreed review of any AI features. Third-party sites are outside our control; we can review your integrations and discuss accessible alternatives.
We will review and discuss with you to determine the issues and potential remedies – and costs if you would like Fortress to resolve them.
