Our DEI Mandate

Diversity & Inclusion Defined

• Diversity refers to the presence of people who, as a group, have a wide range of characteristics, seen and unseen.  We are either born with these or have acquired them. These characteristics may include their gender identity, race or ethnicity, military or veteran status, LGBTQ+ status, disability status, and more.
• Inclusion refers to the practice of making all members of an organization feel welcomed.  Providing them equal opportunity to connect, belong, grow and contribute to the organization.  While the organizations supports the advancement of their skill sets, career, and works to make them feel comfortable and confident being their authentic selves. ¹

We commit to maintaining and promoting a culture that is inclusive and welcoming to all.  A workforce that is diverse, is understanding of various cultures, backgrounds and experiences.  Through this we can better position ourselves to serve our members. The Board and Employees of the Company commit to identifying and challenging their own inherent biases, and to consider diversity and inclusion principles in all aspects of the business.

It is a privilege that our office and traditional coverage area are located on a territory that has been the site of human activity for many thousands of years. We wish to honour the ancestral guardians of this land and its waterways: the Neutral, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee Peoples.

As an organization and as individuals, we at Trillium Mutual Insurance will continue to listen, learn and educate to contribute to a better future.

Today, many Indigenous peoples continue to call this land home and act as its stewards; this responsibility extends to all peoples, to share and care for this land for generations to come.
