Indigenous Inclusion Thought Leadership Series Webinar

Strengthening Your Organization’s Indigenous Talent Strategy

Overview

The low Indigenous representation in the labour force can be attributed to a number of factors including misinformation, confusion, and general lack of cultural competency and understanding  with regards to Indigenous citizens in Canada.  Employing Indigenous workforce talent has benefits, but specific practices need to be acknowledged and addressed to recruit and retain Indigenous personnel. To accomplish better representation of Indigenous talent within the Canadian labour market requires an assessment of the current measures of Indigenous employment in Canada. This webinar will assist employers with promising practices to strengthen their respective Indigenous talent strategy within their organizations.

Strategies and objectives discussed will be as follows:

1. Recognize cultural differences that exist in traditional colonial attraction processes and how to adapt a culturally appropriate process
2. Benefits to hiring an Indigenous workforce
3. Retention and Advancement of Indigenous employees
