During International Women’s Day celebrations today, Mayor Jim Watson and Councillor Theresa Kavanagh, City Council’s Liaison for Women and Gender Equity, announced the signing of Electricity Human Resources Canada’s (EHRC) Leadership Accord on Gender Diversity.
Signing of the Accord demonstrates the City of Ottawa’s public commitment to promoting gender diversity and equity within the corporation. Developed and launched by EHRC in 2017, the Accord proposes united action by employers, educators, unions and governments to expand the breadth and depth of the skilled workforce. These actions are designed to ensure that women are informed of the opportunities available in the sector of their choice and, once employed, are fully supported and provided with equal opportunities to grow and develop to their full potential.
As the national capital of Canada, the City of Ottawa is proud to be a leader in gender diversity and employment practices. The Accord is another step in the City’s commitment to fostering a gender-equitable workplace. This builds on other initiatives, including the implementation of the City’s Women and Gender Equity Strategy (WGES) that was developed to ensure that the City of Ottawa’s services, strategies and plans integrate a women and gender lens and promote women and gender equity. The WGES includes a systematic framework that sets corporate and departmental goals and defines commitments of women and gender equity for Phase One of its implementation in 2021-2022.
