Provide accessible names for select elements

Without an accessible name, screen reader users will not know what information the dropdown is asking for, making forms impossible to complete.

Quick Reference

Use the <label> element with a matching for attribute for every <select>
Alternatively, use aria-label or aria-labelledby if a visible label is not possible
Avoid using the first option as a replacement for a proper label

Check

Check that every <select> element in your forms has a valid accessible name or linked label.

Fix

Add a <label> element with a for attribute that matches the id of the <select> tag.

Explain

Explain how accessible names for select elements provide the necessary context for users of assistive technologies.

Code Review
