The list of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers was just released, and includes workplaces that have created initiatives to tacking challenging areas with “transparency and accountability.”

“There is a clear shift in conversation and a desire to address challenging issues, like anti-racism and reconciliation with Canada’s Indigenous peoples, head on,” said Kristina Leung, Senior Editor of the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project.

“Organizations are having a transparent, honest dialogue with employees about their experience, in the workplace and in their personal lives – and are using that feedback to drive action and response.”

Leung added that transparency is a key theme amongst this year’s winners.
