I've found using Safari to access Outlook's web mail is doable. It can
be a bit tedious, since it's a web interface, but I didn't find anything
that wasn't accessible.
Note, my employer only allows approved mobile devices to access the
Exchange server, so using the built in email app isn't an option, at
least not until my employer provides me an iPhone.

No it doesn't. It will only allow you to use Word, Excel, and PowerPoint,
but it still has some serious accessibility issues to be resolved. Here is
more info from iTunes:

Hello Everyone,
I cannot remember if this information has been posted to the group but:
Office Mobile for iPhone delivers the three core Office apps-Word, Excel,
and PowerPoint-to the iPhone. When Microsoft first launched Office Mobile
for iPhone, using the app required an Office 365 subscription. Microsoft
has
since removed that restriction and now offers the app for free.
Keep in mind that you will need a free and/or paid Microsoft account in
order to use Office Mobile for iPhone but I suspect that many of us who
use
any of the Microsoft cloud services already have one.
Upon launching the app for the first time, you will find a rather
inaccessible introductory tutorial. To bypass this one-time screen,
simply
perform a three-finger right-to-left swipe several times until you get to
the last page. Then, touch near the center of the screen to place focus
on
the Get Started button which is read correctly by VoiceOver.
Once you sign into the app, you will find that it is not the most
VoiceOver
friendly suite. Be that as it may, it is somewhat usable/accessible.
To be honest, I'm not certain if I'm going to keep Office Mobile for
iPhone
installed on my device as Pages is much more VoiceOver accessible.
I just wanted to pass this information on to you.
Mark
