Ontario is home to some of the country’s most diverse employers, according to Canada’s Best Diversity Employers for 2020.
Forty-two of the top employers are in Ontario, and the list includes the City of Toronto and the TTC.
Now in its 13th year, the annual competition recognizes leaders who create inclusive workplaces and programs for employees from five groups: women, members of visible minorities, persons with disabilities, Aboriginal Peoples and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) peoples.
To determine this year’s winners, the competition reviewed diversity and inclusiveness initiatives from employers who applied for Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. The finalists represent diversity in their industry and their region of Canada.
These are the top 35 winners in Ontario.
