Rule Description
Adding effective form labels is absolutely necessary to make forms accessible. The purpose of form elements such as a checkboxes, radio buttons, input fields, etc. is often clear for sighted users, even if the form element is not programmatically labeled. This isn't usually the case for screen reader users. Adding a label to all form elements eliminates ambiguity and contributes to a more accessible product.
