Webinar Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are we leading the way or stumbling behind? Does anyone have a handle on the statistics? Has your business, agency or non-profit adopted DEI initiatives? Are they actively being implemented and tracked? Are the benefits clear to all involved? What factors are being addressed \u2013 age, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, class, ability, language and\/or cultural background? Does your workforce reflect these commitments \u2013 in front of the house: management\/decision makers, as well as the back of the house: workforce\/membership? Are there efforts underway to boost workforce training and advancement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This webinar\u2019s objectives are to motivate the waste and recycling industry to actively explore and discuss DEI issues and initiatives, and inspire organizations as well as individuals to create their own DEI mandates. We will address the various aspects of the topic via succinct introductory presentations followed by commentary, a robust intra-panel discussion and a lively Q&A session! The webinar slides and resources will be made available to all attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
