ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
Introduction
Slovenian Sovereign Holding (Slovenski državni holding, d. d.; hereinafter: SSH) is committed to making its website kk.sdh.si accessible in accordance with the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications Act, as amended (Zakon o dostopnosti spletišč in mobilnih aplikacij, ZDSMA; Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, Nos. 30/18, 95/21 – ZInfV-A, 189/21 – ZDU-1M and 18/23 – ZDU-1O), and Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
This accessibility statement applies to the website kk.sdh.si (SSH Nomination Committee Portal), covering both the public part and the part for signed-in users (candidates and internal users).
Compliance status
The website kk.sdh.si is partially compliant with the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications Act due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed in the section “Non-accessible content”.
Accessibility of the website
The website has been developed in accordance with the SIST EN 301 549 standard and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA, and allows users to:
- skip to the main content of the page (“Skip to content” link) and navigate by marked page regions (header, navigation, main content, footer),
- use the website with a keyboard, with a visible focus indicator, and with screen readers,
- fill in forms with labelled fields, marked required fields and text error messages that are linked to the fields and summarised at the top of the form,
- zoom text up to 200% and change the font size in the browser settings without loss of content or functionality,
- view content on different devices and screen sizes, including at a width of 320 CSS pixels (responsive design),
- use the operating system’s high contrast mode (e.g. contrast themes in Windows),
- use the interface in Slovenian and English.
The website does not have a dedicated widget for choosing the colour contrast or font size. Text and interface elements meet the required contrast by default, and users can adjust the display with the same tools they use on other websites:
- zoom: Ctrl and + or Ctrl and − (on Mac computers Cmd and + or −),
- font size: the default font size setting in the browser (e.g. in Chrome: Settings → Appearance → Font size),
- contrast: the operating system’s high contrast mode (e.g. in Windows: Settings → Accessibility → Contrast themes).
Non-accessible content
We monitor and continuously improve the accessibility of the website kk.sdh.si. Nevertheless, some content and functionalities do not yet meet all the accessibility requirements laid down by the ZDSMA.
a) Non-compliance with the legislation:
- time limit of the online refresher test – one hour is available to complete the test, and the time limit cannot be turned off, extended or adjusted. The remaining time is displayed at all times and announced to screen readers; before the time runs out, the user is warned and can submit the test immediately, and answers are saved as they are given. When the time runs out, the test is submitted automatically with the answers selected up to that point (SIST EN 301 549, clause 9.2.2.1);
- session timeout – the session expires after 4 hours of inactivity without prior warning and without the option to extend it, so unsaved entries are lost (SIST EN 301 549, clause 9.2.2.1);
- PDF documents – documents published on the website (the portal user instructions and the motivation letter instructions in Slovenian and English, statements for signature, and the rules referred to by the website) have not yet been reviewed for accessibility and may not be fully accessible (SIST EN 301 549, chapter 10).
b) Disproportionate burden: not claimed.
c) Content not within the scope of the legislation:
- the Rekono Sign electronic signature service, which is provided by a third party and is not under the control of SSH; a handwritten or other electronic signature is available as an alternative;
- documents and evidence uploaded to the website by users themselves.
Accessible alternatives: users who cannot access or use certain content because of the non-compliances or exemptions listed above can request the information in a format accessible to them by e-mail at kadrovska.komisija@sdh.si. Candidates who need an adjustment to the online refresher test because of a disability can also contact this address.
Preparation of this accessibility statement
This statement was prepared on 28 September 2026.
The method used was the one set out in the first indent of point (a) of Article 3(1) of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1523 – a self-assessment carried out by the public sector body. The self-assessment was carried out on 23 September 2026 (automated testing and code review). The identified non-compliances were remedied and the website was re-tested from 24 to 28 September 2026: automated testing in the browser on the public pages (in Slovenian and English), the candidate pages and the internal users’ pages, testing of zoom, reflow at a width of 320 CSS pixels and text spacing, testing of keyboard use and error messages, and testing with the NVDA screen reader for the public part and the candidate pages.
The statement was last reviewed and updated on 26 October 2026.
