RBC - One of Canada's Best Diversity Employers for 2009
February 2009 – RBC has been named as one of
Canada's Best Diversity Employers for 2009 in a national competition
that aims to identify organizations that lead Canada in creating
diverse and inclusive workplaces.
The award recognizes employers that have developed exemplary
diversity initiatives in five employee groups: women; members
of visible minorities; persons with disabilities; Aboriginal
peoples; and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered / Transsexual
(LGBT) peoples.
"RBC recognizes the value and power of tapping into
the full spectrum of ideas and abilities that people possess,"
says Zabeen Hirji, Chief Human Resources Officer. "Making
the most of our diversity has always been the right thing
to do."
This competition is held annually by Mediacorp Canada Inc.
as a supplement of Canada's Top 100 Employers, which RBC was
also recognized for in 2009.
