508 vs. ADA vs. WCAG (Quick Guide)

Section 508

Federal law requires accessibility of electronic and information technology used by U.S. federal agencies and in federal procurement. Requires conformance to WCAG 2.0 AA for web and many non-web documents.

ADA

Civil rights law prohibiting disability discrimination in the U.S. (covering businesses, public entities, etc.). The statute doesn’t define a single technical spec, but WCAG is commonly used in guidance and legal settlements.

WCAG

Technical standards from the W3C for making digital content accessible. Includes Levels A/AA/AAA and versions 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2. Section 508 references WCAG 2.0 AA, while many organizations aim for WCAG 2.1 AA or add 2.2 criteria for better usability.

  • How they relate: Section 508 requires conformance with WCAG; ADA obligations are typically measured against WCAG as the benchmark.
  • Best practice: Remediate to WCAG 2.1 AA (and 2.2 where practical) to ensure 508 compliance today, minimize ADA legal risk, and deliver better usability for all.
