🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ We are thrilled to announce that rhum hr is now officially certified by the Canadian 2SLGBTQIA+ Chamber of Commerce (CGLCC). 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈

This milestone is more than just a certification; it reflects our unwavering commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) across all aspects of our operations.

From an EDI perspective, this certification underscores our dedication to creating a workplace that not only recognizes but celebrates the rich tapestry of identities, experiences, and perspectives our team members bring to the table. It's a testament to our ongoing efforts to foster an environment where everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression, feels valued, respected, and empowered.

For our queer employees, this achievement holds a special significance. It signifies a safe, supportive, and affirming space where they can be their authentic selves without fear of discrimination or exclusion. It reinforces our pledge to not only advocate for LGBTQ+ rights within our organization but also to serve as allies and champions for the broader queer community, our clients, partnerships, and connections.

By achieving CGLCC certification, we are sending a clear message: diversity and inclusion are not just buzzwords for us – they are integral to who we are and how we operate. We are proud to join a network of businesses that share our commitment to advancing 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusion in the workplace and beyond.

As we celebrate this important achievement, we remain committed to building on this foundation, continuously striving to enhance our EDI initiatives, and ensuring our workplace is a reflection of the diverse world we live in. Together, we are not just transforming our business; we are contributing to a more inclusive, equitable, and vibrant society for all.
