Description
The Many Voices One Mind report, published in 2017, identified challenges and barriers Indigenous people face within the public service. Since that time, the Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer and the Public Service Commission has been developing initiatives to support the recruitment, retention and career development of Indigenous employees, with the collaboration of the School. This has involved engaging with Indigenous employees from across the federal public service, hiring managers and human resources specialists to develop career-pathway web platforms.
Please join us as we discuss these initiatives, and learn how we can all better support Indigenous employees and contribute to culturally competent and supportive workplaces.
