Our Community - Fostering Humility, Building Community & Honoring Each Other

• True success is not just measured by individual achievements, but by the strength of our collective efforts. We embrace humility as a cornerstone of our organization, recognizing that each person's contribution is valuable and necessary for our shared success

I.D.E.A. (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility and Anti-Racism)

At Equitable Bank we believe in the power of diversity and inclusivity. We actively seek applications from Indigenous persons, people with disabilities, women, and racialized persons. We recognize the immense value that diverse perspectives bring to our organization and the fact that without them we would not be where we are today. By fostering an inclusive environment, we empower individuals, each with their own lived experiences, to unleash their full potential, driving innovation and excellence in everything we do. Our team values and hears our employees. We celebrate their voices and ideas every day. We are deeply committed to removing barriers, providing unique opportunities and supporting persons within these groups.

We proactively support the rights of Indigenous peoples in Canada and contribute to Truth and Reconciliation efforts in several ways, starting with education, awareness and allyship. At Equitable Bank we support Indigenous communities through partnerships, sponsorships and other collaborations with communities which are all are decided in partnership with the Indigenous Employee Resource Group ("Indigenous ERG"). Direct donations to:

• The Friendship Centre (Kamploops)
• Legacy of Hope Foundation
• Raphael Andre Warming Tent (Montreal)
• Raffled Wreaths for charity are just some examples of this

On top of the work the Indigenous ERG does within the community, they also:

• Host Truth and Reconciliation Day events
• Contribute Indigenous specific history and awareness within Equitable Bank's Unconscious Bias and Anti-racism course
• Help raise awareness of issues impacting the Indigenous community

We actively support the calls to action set out by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We're only just getting started and would love to hear your voice. As a member of the Indigenous community working at Equitable Bank you will have the opportunity to join the Indigenous ERG and help us find ways to have even more impact. All of our Employee Resource Groups, including our Indigenous ERG, are comprised entirely of people of lived experience, and they each provide future goals and plans to their self-chosen Executive Sponsor, who works in tandem with the head of I.D.E.A. at EQ Bank. Here at Equitable Bank we put emphasis on honoring each other's traditions and fostering our whole community.

Indigenous (Aboriginal) peoples of Canada are individuals who are First Nations, Inuit or Métis. First Nations means any of the groups of Indigenous peoples of Canada officially recognized as an administrative unit by the federal government or those functioning as such without official status. Métis means anyone who self-identifies and is of historic Métis Nation ancestry and who is accepted by a Métis Nation. Equitable Bank respectfully recognizes and refers to each of these persons and communities as "Indigenous".
