Dear List
Sharing a few successes that Union Access achieved in recent times. 1. The latest success is an OTP generation mobile application for authorizing login/transactions done on Union Bank of India Internet Banking portal is made fully screen reader friendly for both android and IOS in user acceptance test phase. Soon its updated version with maximum accessibility will be made live. It was a great learning experience for team Union access to work closely with the developers and to get the remediations implemented. 2. Newly added features in the internet banking portal of the Union Bank of India like deposit print receipt, Re-KYC, Cheque positive pay system and Debit card limit are improved for accessibility. 3. Bank’s few departments are sensitized and educated to send daily informative and educative emails with text description for the embedded images in emails. Also, e-circulars are regularly monitored by the concerned bank’s team. In case of uploaded scanned image pdf they immediately flag it for replacement with text searchable pdf format. 4. In continuation to Union Access awareness efforts post 600+ probationary officers disability and accessibility sensitization sessions, 1400+ clerks total 18 numbers awareness sessions on disability inclusion are scheduled by the bank's training college which will be conducted by team Union Access. 5. As part of ongoing Union Access outreach program, we facilitated opening bank accounts for persons with visual impairment with the support from NGOs, colleagues and branch staff. Our bank’s visually impaired employees are equally participating in the bank's aspiration on digital accessibility enhancement. Still, a long way to go as our key focus is on digital banking channels accessibility improvements. We are thankful for the support from the list and urge to provide feedback and suggestions to email id unionacc...@unionbankofindia.bank Best regards, Prashant Naik 9967968881 On Fri, Aug 12, 2022 at 12:38 PM rajesh parakh <rajeshparak...@gmail.com> wrote: > SPLENDID JOB.
