Multi-Year Accessibility Plan (2026–2031)

Pong Game Studios Corp has developed this multi-year accessibility plan in accordance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) and the Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation (IASR). This plan sets out the company’s strategy to prevent and remove barriers to accessibility and to meet its requirements under the IASR.

​

About This Plan

Pong Game Studios Corp is a game studio with more than 50 employees in Ontario, working from one office at 201 Creditview Road, Woodbridge. The company does not use self-service kiosks and does not provide transportation services. This plan covers the company’s policies, employment practices, information and communications (including its public website and support portal), services to clients and other third parties, and premises. HR prepared this plan and the CEO approved it.

​

Strategy

​

  • Audit the public website and operate a published feedback process that is accessible to persons with disabilities.

  • Train all employees and others acting on the company’s behalf on the IASR and the Human Rights Code, and train those who deal with the public or other third parties on accessible customer service.

  • Review hiring, accommodation, return-to-work, performance management, career development, and redeployment practices for barriers.

  • Review and update this plan at least once every five years.
