The 2024 Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP Diversity Disclosure Practices report has been released, being its 10th-anniversary report.
The report’s detailed insight reveals that progress on diversity practices at the board level has found continued improvement, albeit slower and with much less progress in representation among chairs and leadership teams.
Much information is provided on the representation of women, visible minorities, indigenous peoples, and persons with disabilities in Canada’s corporate leadership. A comprehensive list of best practices for increasing diversity provides examples of innovative leaders for each initiative.
We are pleased about the mention of the LGBTQ Corporate Directors Canada and the Institute for Gender and the Economy‘s report revealing that only 0.15% of Corporate directors in Canada identify as being LGBTQ+. This is an astonishingly low diversity representation and one that is actively being addressed going forward.
