The diversity of Symcor’s workforce is a competitive advantage that helps us improve our service for customers.

Our programs supporting diversity include:

Equal Opportunity in a Diverse Workplace – Symcor recognizes the value of a workforce that represents the communities in which we operate. We maintain a workplace free of discrimination where employees have an equal opportunity to utilize and develop their skills.

Our Employment Equity program in Canada, and Equal Employment Opportunity programs in the U.S., support all employees regardless of race, national origin, religion, age, disability, sex, family status, sexual orientation, military or veteran status. We ensure they have access to services, opportunities for training and professional development, promotion, accommodation for special needs and the best chance possible for a rewarding career.

The Women’s Leadership Forum (WLF)
The WLF was formed in 2006 and serves as a sponsor and catalyst for positive change that benefits women in our organization. Our goal is to encourage and improve female representation through enhanced focus on networking, succession planning, development and retention of female talent.

Job Search Resources for Newcomers
Symcor supports diversity in our communities through participation in a program that provides mentoring to foreign-trained individuals. Networking, resume development, interview coaching and other skills help newcomers to find employment and integrate into the local workforce.

We are proud to have received an award from The Canadian Council of Rehabilitation and Work (CCRW) in 2007 for contributing to an inclusive and diverse Canadian workplace by increasing employment of persons with disabilities.
