The University of Windsor, in collaboration with the University of Waterloo and Conestoga College, published a new toolkit, Building Trust with Indigenous Employees: the Indigenous Workways Toolkit, which supports inclusive workplaces for Indigenous employees. The online resource will help organizations across Canada build stronger connections with Indigenous employees by offering insights into their worldviews and workplace experiences. The toolkit is designed to help managers, human resource professionals, and employees create culturally safe and inclusive workplaces.
The toolkit includes six self-guided training modules that explore the contemporary Indigenous context and share the lived experiences of Indigenous employees from the Indigenous Workways action research project. It also offers three manuals, each filled with information and tools to assess and support cultural safety for Indigenous employees, develop mentorship networks and guide organizational outreach to Indigenous communities.
