June marks Pride Month, a global celebration of love, identity, and the ongoing fight for #equality and human rights for the LGBTQ+ community. We encourage our employees to participate in Pride events locally and globally. We're hosting discussions on LGBTQ+ matters and providing a platform for active engagement with our Folx employee resource group. By sharing valuable resources, we aim to foster learning and emphasize allyship. As we celebrate Pride Month, we also honour Juneteenth in the U.S. and Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada. Everyone deserves dignity and respect. Together, we can create a more inclusive workplace where everyone feels they belong. Happy Pride! #PoweredWithPride #Pride2024

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🌈 As we celebrate Pride Month, it's essential to recognize the importance of diversity in the workplace. Every voice, every perspective, and every story enriches our collective experience, driving innovation and fostering a more inclusive environment.

Together, let's build a workplace and a world that celebrates diversity, champions equality, and stands against hate. Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈💼 #pridemonth #DiversityAndInclusion #EqualityForAll #EmpathyInAction
