Understanding EDI to Help Reshape the Workplace – November 24, 2022

TIABC

UNDERSTANDING EDI TO HELP RESHAPE THE WORKPLACE

Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are important elements in sustainable labor recovery. But what do these really mean in the workplace context? While businesses are aware of the importance of these elements, many are often unsure where to start.

TIABC and our co-host go2HR are committed to building strong and safe workplaces. We engaged ParriagGroup, a leading EDI firm, to deliver a webinar that deepens our understanding of EDI and how to start reshaping the workplace.

What participants learned:
• what is generally meant by the terms equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI)
• why it is so important from both a people and a business perspective
• an introduction to the EDI Framework
• how the EDI Framework can be used

Please join us in this important journey toward a more equitable, inclusive, and diverse tourism and hospitality industry in BC.
