Most likely with bands of penalties based on the extent and severity of each compliance violation.<\/p><p>However, the pitfalls of non-compliance are not limited to regulatory issues:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Loss of business<\/strong> \u2013 Inaccessibility results in lost sales, market share, and revenue, because people will take their business elsewhere if they\u2019re unable to use your website.<\/li><li><strong>Reputational damage<\/strong> &#8211; The negative publicity associated with non-compliance could severely damage your company&#8217;s reputation and impact customer trust and loyalty.<\/li><li><strong>Inability to bid for public contracts<\/strong> &#8211; Some jurisdictions may exclude non-compliant organisations from the bidding process on public contracts.<\/li><li><strong>Loss of market leadership<\/strong> \u2013 When employees and stakeholders lose respect for an organisation, it impacts recruitment, retention, and your ability to attract
