Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging in Construction Environments Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging in Construction Environments

Now more than ever, organizations are realizing the importance of “diversity” in the workplace… and how employees with different experiences, backgrounds and skills can come together to make a company more successful. And if employees don’t feel that their workplace has a supportive as well as respectful culture, they are much more likely to leave as well. That’s why it's important everyone understands what diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging is, and how they can help make a DEIB program successful.
