Resolute’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Advisory Committee was established at the beginning of 2022 to provide education and increase awareness around DE&I challenges; promote inclusive behavior and language; and encourage constructive, respectful conversations across the organization. The committee is composed of eight dedicated employees representing the company’s various sectors and operating regions.
The committee’s main goals in 2023 were to recommend DE&I commitments, monitor their progress and plan priorities for the year. Numerous communications were published, including a series of blogposts: Creating a more diverse, equitable and inclusive culture at Resolute, It’s Black History Month, Resolute Celebrates International Women’s Day, International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, April is Celebrate Diversity Month, June Kicks off Pride Season!, June is National Indigenous History Month, Honoring the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Celebrating Latin American and Hispanic Heritage Month! / Celebrando el Mes de la Herencia Latinoamericana y Hispana! and Observing the International Day of Persons with Disabilities: December 3.
Committee members also organized several management and employee conferences, employee discussion groups, and training and information sessions, such as training on unconscious bias, reaching 56% of employees in leadership positions, with a goal for all management employees to complete the training by the end of 2024.
Our DE&I Advisory Committee is leading the way in actively shaping a more diverse, equitable and inclusive culture. This year, the committee is developing new objectives and activities, including recommendations from cross-functional groups addressing challenges faced by women in the organization.
We appreciate the committee’s efforts and insights, and look forward to seeing what they’ll achieve in 2024!
