      Issue Summary

      On system dashboard page, the Next & Previous pagination links present below the "Assigned to me" table are not announced by screen reader.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Navigate to the Jira system dashboard page.
      2. Navigate to the Next & Previous pagination links present below the "Assigned to me" table.
      3. Observe that the screen reader doesn’t announce the context of the links.

      Actual Results

      While navigating with screen reader, when user navigate to the "Next >" & "Previous <" pagination links present below the "Assigned to me" table, the screen reader doesn’t announce the link context.

      Although the link context "Next >>" & "<< Previous" is present inside a <span> elements, but the element is hidden from assistive technologies via CSS display:none property.

      This makes screen reader & other assistive technology users difficult to under the purpose of the links.

      Expected Results

      The screen reader should announce the link text of "Next" & "Previous" pagination links.

      Remove the CSS display:none property from the <span> elements & use off-screen css properties. 

      For Example:

      .sr-only

      { position:absolute; left:-10000px; top:auto; width:1px; height:1px; overflow:hidden; }
