Our Workplace

Supporting Sysco Canada’s Colleague Resource Groups

These groups provide a safe space and a sense of belonging for many colleagues from underrepresented backgrounds and allies who want to learn from and support their peers.

Engaging Colleagues to Advance Workplace Inclusion
We seek opportunities to bring all Sysco colleagues to the table as we develop and execute our inclusion initiatives. This helps us bring awareness to key topics, build momentum toward our DEI Roadmap, and ensure our actions align with our colleagues’ priorities and needs. For several years, our DEI leaders have brought colleagues into the conversation through forums such as Sysco’s Better Together Town Halls.

Sysco’s Global DEI Council is a working group of up to 25 colleagues from around the world with representation across dimensions of diversity such as race, gender, age, abilities, sexual orientation, geographic location, career level, and tenure. The Council has been instrumental in developing the three-year "Better Together" DEI roadmap and acts as a sounding board for DEI-related policies, practices, and procedures.
