Diversity and inclusive practices are critical components of any business. It is a culture that must be instilled from the beginning of the organization, as most workplaces are becoming increasingly diverse, with talent employed from all over the world and from all cultures.
It is a robust policy that organizations must adhere to without lapse or compromise when such events occur. These aspects determine the brand’s integrity, the trustworthiness and connection that customers have with the company and crucial factors that organizations will evaluate when deciding whether or not to partner with you.
The CanadianSME Diversity and Inclusion Award recognizes these healthy practices and policies that businesses implement to provide an inclusive and welcoming work environment for all employees.
