Starting April 1 2024, ICBC has made Reconciliation a corporate priority. It's important our corporate strategy reflects the needs of our diverse province. Indigenous Peoples, however, face unique circumstances than other customers that influence their interactions with ICBC, such as significant travel distances from remote communities. This year, we're introducing a Reconciliation Action Plan that identifies how we can better serve Indigenous People. The Action Plan is driven from recommendations from the Union of BC Indian Chiefs (UBCIC) Road to Reconciliation discussion paper and a new Reconciliation Framework report from Two Worlds Consulting (TWC). We recognize our Reconciliation journey is in its beginning stages and acknowledge the meaningful work already underway in our company. We look forward to building on this progress.
One step we are taking towards our commitment to Reconciliation is providing five paid days of Indigenous Cultural Leave per year for Indigenous employees to attend ceremonial, cultural and spiritual events.
We promote an inclusive and diverse work environment. We have a dedicated Indigenous Employee Resource Group (ERG) working towards the vision of increasing the presence of Indigenous employees at ICBC by building awareness, understanding and support for Indigenous Peoples. It provides a safe space for Indigenous staff to connect and access support.
