Checks that form fields don't have multiple labels

| | |
|---|---|
| **Rule ID** | `a11y/form-field-multiple-labels` |
| **Category** | [Accessibility](/rules/a11y) |
| **Scope** | Per-page |

| **Weight** | 5/10 |

## Solution

Form inputs should have only one associated label. Multiple labels can confuse assistive technology. If you need multiple text descriptions, use aria-describedby for supplementary text instead of multiple labels.
