As we approach the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, it's a meaningful time to reflect on belonging at work.
For Indigenous employees in tourism and hospitality, belonging isn't just being included, it's being seen, heard, and valued.
5 ways workplaces can build real belonging 👇
1️⃣ Warm Welcome: Greet new employees with kindness and thoughtful gestures.
2️⃣ Inclusive Language: Use "we" and "our" to promote collaboration and respect.
3️⃣ Active Listening: Leaders who listen, and act on it, build trust.
4️⃣ Mentorship: Support employees as they navigate a new workplace or industry.
5️⃣ Intentional Artwork: Local Indigenous art and stories can help honour culture in shared spaces.
