It is my understanding that more complaints (or worse) come from inside a
company/business/organization than from outside. An inaccessible intranet
can reduce the ability of the coworkers to perform their functions. Forms
are so important, not just within an intranet but an internet web site as
well. Many intranet forms allow the employees to record attendance, sign up
for courses, fill out expense reports and inaccessible forms such as these
affect the ability of those who need accessibility to complete these forms.

A co-worker asks if their forms need to be compliant or not for the
