Actual Results

Heading structure is found to be inappropriate on the page. Text such as "Your work" is coded as <h2> and text such as "Your pull request (4)", "Recently closed pull requests" and "Repository search" are coded as <h3> which does not matches the visual hierarchy on the page. As a result, screen reader users found it difficult to understand the page's content structure.

Expected Results

The heading levels should be announced as per the visual hierarchy by screen reader to understand the page structure for their users.

 
Use heading levels as per specification such as <h1> should be followed by <h2>, <h3> and so on.
Even though this is required at WCAG 2.1 at Level AAA, it is recommended that the discussed issue be addressed as screen reader users rely on headings heavily to understand the page structure.
 
Provide <h1> for "Your work" text.
Provide <h2> for "Your pull request (4)", "Recently closed pull requests" and "Repository search" text elements.
