That\u2019s a question we keep top of mind at Integrity Staffing Solutions\u2014and that we think every employer should also be thinking about. Because celebrating the contributions of all employees\u2014particularly those from underrepresented groups\u2014needs to go far beyond a once-a-year holiday; true DEI commitment is an everyday, all-hands-on-deck effort!<\/p>\n
That said, we can\u2019t let occasions like International Women\u2019s Day go unnoticed! This is a great opportunity for all organizations, including Integrity Staffing, to remind ourselves exactly why DEI needs to be a cornerstone of our work. On IWD and throughout this entire Women\u2019s History Month, we\u2019ll all share and hear stories of the incredible women who are powering progress across the globe, driving home that, for true innovation to succeed, we need to be elevating all voices, particularly those who don\u2019t always have equal access to opportunity. When we can empower women and other diverse communities, however, employees reach their potential, organizations are driven to meet their goals and the communities in which we live and work are made all the better\u2014a win\/win\/win!<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve seen this reality right here at Integrity, which has valued DEI as one of our guiding principles since we were founded more than 25 years ago. Throughout that time, countless women have thrived through our culture of inclusion, many joining us as entry-level employees and finding opportunity after opportunity as they climbed the ranks. Our president, Jamie Donnelly, for instance, started with us in recruiting more than 20 years ago and took advantage of our commitment to promote from within and work to build career paths for our employees that match their skills. She\u2019s just one example of how seriously we take the role of DEI at Integrity\u2014we don\u2019t just say on paper that women should have equal access to opportunities, we work to make that a reality at our own organization.<\/p>\n
Progress doesn\u2019t mean, however, that there aren\u2019t challenges. This International Women\u2019s Day, it\u2019s important to remember the many barriers that still exist for women in the workforce. Particularly in light of the events of the last few years, millions of women around the world are struggling to find opportunity in this quickly changing world of work, confronting bias, unfair societal expectations and much more that are all keeping so many from embracing their full potential.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why we want to use occasions like International Women\u2019s Day to amplify our commitment to women\u2014there\u2019s a lot of work still to do, but we want to celebrate all that women have contributed to our organization, our culture, our clients and the communities we serve. We salute you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
