Abstract
Despite efforts made, it is still difficult to clearly grasp the situation of disability within companies. Therefore, to overcome this problem, this paper proposes and describes an innovative tool that may facilitate corporate governance. The tool is a serious game developed on an interactive RFID tabletop associated with tangible objects. The serious game is called SG-HANDI. It is designed to be used in disability awareness sessions in companies. It implies directors, managers and employees and proposes a set of challenges to be solved as a team. The objective is to encourage stakeholders to think and act collectively for a more accessible company.
