Diversity and inclusion
To solve important problems we need to be inclusive of our diverse talent and use the power of our differences to achieve our goals.
At PwC, diversity and inclusion is a priority because we need the best available talent to create value for our clients, people and communities. We hire and nurture professionals with a variety of approaches to problem-solving, who are willing to challenge the status quo, who think differently from one another, and who come from many different backgrounds and cultures.
We're incredibly proud to be a founding sponsor of the Onyx Initiative. The Onyx Initiative supports Black students and recent graduates with coaching and online training on important job-hunting skills, including crafting a cover letter and preparing for a job interview. It’ll also connect students with prospective employers, including PwC Canada.
Pursuing new family frontiers
By Emma Whalley-Hands, Partner, PwC Canada
When I first realised I was gay, the biggest disappointment to me was that I thought that it would mean that I could never have my own family. I had no role models showing me that type of family dynamic at play. I couldn’t imagine how I’d even go about building a family with another woman and in addition to that, same-sex marriage was not yet legalised in the UK.
