Accessibility : Screen reader does not read the field labels on the Jira Service Desk Portal

      Problem:
      At the Service Desk frontend Portal, the label of the most part of the fields (system and custom fields) are not accessible with a screen reader.

      The environment used for the test:
      Mac Osx default screen reader
      Firefox 76.0.1

      Steps to Reproduce:

      • Create a default IT Service Desk Project area;
      • Create some Custom fields, for instance:
        • "Browsers" - Select List (multiple choices)
        • "Issue Category" - Selection list (single) - add 
        • "Issue Description" - Text Field (multi-line)
        • "Jira Projet URL" - URL field
        • "Jira Project key" - Text Field (single line)
      • Add these fields on the Portal:
        • Project settings > Request Types
        • Edit Fields for the "Report a system problem" and add the new custom fields;
      • Open a Firefox browser and reach the portal;
      • Select <Report a system Problem>;
      • Hit <tab> to reach each field;

      Expected behavior:

      • Screen Reader identifies each field.

      Observed behavior:

      • Most of the fields were not identified:

      Business impact

      • Users with visual disabilities can not identify which fields are being edited, they can not use the Service Desk Portal.
