The WCB has a Joint Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity (JEDI) Committee with representation from both Management and the Union. Under the umbrella of one of our core values of providing a respectful and diverse workplace reflective of Manitoba, both parties agree to cooperate in formulation of implementing a program designed to ensure employee equity for every member of our staff.

The JEDI Committee’s key objectives are:

• To continue to ensure that current and future employment systems are non-discriminatory
• To continue to enhance the equality and treatment of women, Aboriginals, visible minorities and persons with disabilities
• To continue to redress disparities, if any, in the employer’s present workforce distribution
• To continue to develop strategies to enhance the recruitment, appointment and retention of target group members
• To continue to prepare the organization for the increasing role target group member will play in the workforce
• To continue to support an appreciation for diversity by developing awareness
