Diversity is one of the highest priorities at the firm and as a result, we have been named one of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers for 12 consecutive years. This honour reflects the commitment to our workplace diversity and inclusion, and our ongoing effort to build a culture where no one has to cover parts of themselves to be successful. The strength of our organization lies in our people, and we believe in supporting everyone to reach their full potential.

Our enterprise-wide Inclusion Now strategy, as well as the engagement and dedication of our people who consistently embrace and champion inclusivity is inspiring,” said Dave Leonard, CEO of McCarthy Tétrault. “We’ve made significant strides towards eliminating disparities within our own workplace, the legal industry, and the communities we serve and look forward to continuing the discussion and driving positive change.”

Since we launched Inclusion Now, we’ve created a more inclusive workplace by accelerating our recruitment, retention, and advancement of women, racialized people, members of the LGBTQ2S+ community, Indigenous Peoples and people with disabilities, and ensuring we have the programs and policies in place to set our people up for success. We do this through the work of our Inclusion Now Office, Inclusion & Wellbeing Council, and our Action Groups – Pride, Gender Equality, Race and Abilities, collaborative working committees designed to be cross-functional, under the leadership and support of our fulltime Chief Inclusion Officer, Charlene Theodore, and Inclusion Now Office.
