Case study: Improved content design: Canada.ca design

By reading GC Task Success Survey comments for the Submit and Employment Insurance report task, the team at Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) was able to spot an issue that they believed could be improved through minor content design changes.

A common complaint was that the reporting link was hard to find on the Employment Insurance reporting page.

“Finding the sign-in homepage link is a challenge”
  • There was an inline link to begin a report in the middle of a long paragraph.
  • The primary call-to-action button was after several lengthy paragraphs of text.
