RBC Financial Group is committed to respecting the diversity of our clients, communities and employees. By embracing a vibrant mix of cultures, ages, races, lifestyles and genders in our workplace and our marketplace, we believe RBC will be a rewarding place to work and a dynamic organization with which to do business. Diversity leadership Our commitment to diversity starts at the most senior levels of RBC. The Diversity Leadership Council is chaired by President & CEO Gordon M. Nixon and includes executive champions from all businesses. This council is responsible for setting RBC’s overall strategy for diversity and employment equity, discussing issues and overseeing progress. Executives champion and support implementation of the diversity strategies within their respective businesses, seeking input from employees and reporting results back to their business unit heads. In addition, senior executives have assumed the role of champions for a number of client and employee groups. For example, within RBC Banking, executive champions have been appointed for visible minorities and Aboriginal Peoples, people with disabilities and women. We continue to sponsor a number of community business organizations, such as the Canadian-Italian Business and Professionals Association, the Canada Tamil Chamber of Commerce, the Punjabi Chamber of Commerce, the Indus Entrepreneurs, the Association of Canadian Chinese Entrepreneurs and the Black Business and Professionals Association. In 2003, RBC Mortgage became a charter member of the National Hispanic Mortgage Bankers & Brokers Association with the goal of helping increase Hispanic home ownership in the United States through the sponsorship of initiatives such as educational seminars. For RBC’s most current employment equity
report, provided to the federal government, Diversity awareness for employees RBC’s Recruitment Centre includes dedicated roles focused on diversity recruitment, as our ongoing priority is to actively recruit a diverse workforce. This is important as we strive to achieve our business strategies that are based on strong relationships with distinct cultural and client segments. An array of educational tools produced by RBC, such as our award-winning Diversity in Action video, What We Can Do gender behaviours booklet and Flexible Work Arrangements guides, continues to be requested by external groups including academia, businesses, community groups and individuals. |
