Accessibility statement

Last reviewed November 2026

Kloqk is an employee time clock and HR platform. Owners, managers and employees all need to be able to use it, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard instead of a mouse, magnification, or high contrast settings. This page says what standard we work to, where we are today, and how to tell us when something does not work for you.

Our standard

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. This is the technical standard the US Department of Justice adopted in its ADA Title II rule for the websites and apps of state and local governments, and it is widely used by other organizations as well.

We describe Kloqk as partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 AA. That means most of the product meets the standard and we are working on the parts that do not yet, which are listed below. We have not had an outside firm audit the product, and we do not claim full conformance.

What this covers

  • The public website at kloqk.com, including the help center and resources.
  • Sign up, sign in, and password reset.
  • The dashboard used by owners and managers.
  • The employee portal, where staff clock in from their own phone or computer.
  • The shared time clock (kiosk) used on a tablet or computer at work.
  • Each business's public careers page.
  • Report PDFs downloaded from the dashboard.

What we have done

  • A "Skip to main content" link at the top of the dashboard and the employee portal, so keyboard and screen reader users can get past the menu.
  • Every form field on the sign in and sign up pages has a label a screen reader reads out.
  • Text and link colors meet the AA contrast ratio in both the light and the dark theme.
  • On the time clock, pop-up panels are real dialogs that keep keyboard focus inside them, buttons that show only an icon have spoken names, and the result of a punch (for example "clocked in at 9:02 AM") is announced to screen readers.
  • Screens that close on their own after a short time can be kept open, and you are warned before manager mode on the time clock ends.
  • Report PDFs are tagged (PDF/UA), with a reading order, headings, table headers and the document language, so a screen reader can read them as tables. CSV exports of the same data are also available.
  • Pages fit a 320 pixel wide screen without scrolling sideways, which also covers zooming to 400%.

Known limitations

These are the problems we know about today and what we are doing about them.

  • Screen reader testing is not finished. We have tested with automated tools and with a keyboard, but a full pass with VoiceOver and NVDA is still in progress. Until it is done, some screens may announce things in a confusing order or miss a change on the page.
  • Small edit and remove buttons on the schedule. The icons for editing or removing a shift on the schedule grid are 12 pixels wide, which is hard to hit on a touch screen. WCAG 2.1 does not set a size for these, but the newer WCAG 2.2 does, and we plan to make them larger. Selecting the shift itself also opens it for editing and is a larger target. Removing a shift still needs the small icon.
  • Some new text is English only. Kloqk can be used in Spanish and other languages. Some of the new accessibility text, such as hidden button names and screen reader announcements, has not been translated into every language yet and is read out in English.

How we test

  • Automated scans with axe-core of every main page: the public site, sign in and sign up, the dashboard, the employee portal, the time clock and careers pages. Each page is scanned in the light and dark theme, at phone and desktop widths.
  • Keyboard testing of the time clock, including moving through every panel with the Tab key and making sure focus never gets lost behind a pop-up.
  • Checks that report PDFs carry tags, headings, table structure and a language.
  • Manual screen reader testing with VoiceOver and NVDA, which is in progress.

Automated tools find only part of what WCAG covers, which is why the manual screen reader pass matters and why we list it as unfinished.

Tell us about a problem

If something in Kloqk is hard or impossible for you to use, email [email protected]. It helps to tell us the page you were on, what you were trying to do, and the device, browser and any assistive technology you use, but send what you have. A person will read it, and we aim to reply within 5 business days. If you need the information on a page in another format, ask and we will provide it.

Updates to this page
