Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) in the Workplace

Home Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) in the Workplace

Diversity, equity and inclusion have taken on increased importance in the workplace regardless of the size of an organization.  Become a leader of equity, diversity and inclusion in your workplace. Inclusive leaders are aware of their own biases and preferences, actively seek out and consider different views and perspectives to inform better decision-making. They see diverse talent as a source of competitive advantage and inspire diverse teams to drive organizational and individual performance towards a shared vision.

This course will enhance your skill, understanding and comfort level in creating and participating in a workplace devoted to EDI focused on collective solidarity and the co-creation of a justice-centred, equitable, and inclusive workplace. You will also learn the important role workplace supervisors play in maintaining a harassment and discrimination free workplace, and how to recognize, respond, and refer employees who report a potential violation of the Discrimination & Harassment Policy to you or a member of your team.
