People are the most important asset of any organization and leveraging the full potential of our most important asset is critical to our success.

To increase the diversity and inclusion of our workforce globally, we strive to create equitable opportunities for all employees regardless of race, age, gender, physical/mental abilities, sexual orientation and backgrounds. This requires leaders who can profile issues, provide solutions and act as diversity champions on behalf of both employees and clients.

Women and Visible Minorities / People of Colour

Given the sizeable representation of women and visible minorities in the workforce, RBC will strive to develop and advance women and visible minorites into leadership positions so that we can better represent our diverse communities, respond to our clients' needs and enrich our leadership pool.

Integrating Newcomers (Canadian)

New Canadians and visible minorities are a growing population of our clients in Canada – and we expect much of our future domestic growth to come from these markets. We believe we must be an employer of choice for newcomers and we will work hard to fully integrate and make the most of the skills and talents of our newcomer employees.

For Canada to succeed in the global marketplace, we must work at attracting the right skills and the best minds, while more effectively utilizing our current human capital. Attracting and integrating immigrants into the workforce is imperative to Canada’s growth as well as to RBC’s success as an organization.

Active Leaders for Diversity (Global)

We will engage our leaders in making change happen. Our Active Leaders for Diversity initiative helps more RBC leaders actively promote diversity in more communities.
