WebAIM Contrast Checker
WebAIM Contrast Checker is a tool that allows you to enter or select foreground and background colours and lighten or darken the colours slightly to find acceptable text and graphical contrast levels based on the WCAG 2.0 luminosity formula.
How to use
Use the WebAIM lightness slider to adjust the selected colour. Accessible text colours are generated with WCAG Guidelines and recommended a contrast ratio of 4.5:1 but to meet TELUS standards it must be 7:1 .

The TELUS team acknowledges that our work spans many Territories and Treaty areas and we are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are with us today, those who have gone before us and the youth that inspire us. We recognize the land and the benefits it provides all of us, as an act of Reconciliation, as recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) 94 Calls to Action and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on, work on or are visiting.
