PSP Investments
Unleashing full employee potential through Equity,
Inclusion and Diversity
PSP Investments credits its commitment to Equity, Inclusion and
Diversity (Ei&D) as a critical driver in maintaining its inclusive culture
and supporting and keeping its people connected through the
pandemic.
PSP is deeply committed to embedding Ei&D principles throughout its
employee life cycle — to ensure employees feel valued, safe, respected
and empowered to grow. While the Crown corporation's Ei&D Council
is led by its CEO and CHRO, its eight Affinity Groups are led by
employees, who put on dozens of highly popular initiatives per year.
Initiatives range from a powerful panel discussion on the impacts of
racism, to a moving "We Are PSP" article series in which employees
share, via intranet, the unique experiences that have shaped their
identities.
" Since the beginning of our Ei&D journey, I've been truly touched by
the commitment and relentless efforts of our Ei&D Council members
who go above and beyond their roles to contribute to our Ei&D
objectives. They have had a tremendous impact on all of us."
— Giulia Cirillo, Senior Vice President, Chief Human
Resources and Global Communications Officer
Committing to change
PSP remains humble in its success and knows that much remains to
be done. With a long-term ambition and a strong foundation of respect
and empathy, it is pursuing its journey to continue to break down
barriers, build a truly inclusive working environment and empower its
people.

" Our Ei&D culture is a very important focus for
PSP, and we are continuing to strive to engrain
it within the fabric of our organization. We have
learned that it is a cultural pillar that brings our
people together and supports an authentic, open
and sharing culture. We want to be an industry
leader in this area and will continue to take
action to make this happen."
