Accessibility statement

Veritas Pension Insurance endeavours to guarantee the accessibility of its website in accordance with the Act on the Provision of Digital Services and the EU Web Accessibility Directive (EU 2016/2102). The aim of accessibility is equality, which means that anyone can use the services and understand what is said therein. Despite any disabilities, an accessible online service can also be easily used with the help of different assistive devices, such as a screen reader, enlarger tool or the use of only a keyboard.

This accessibility statement applies to the www.veritas.fi website.
