Hot Off the Press: New Data on Diversity in Manufacturing
Manage episode 442218539 series 3598860
In this episode of 'Making it in Ontario,' co-hosts Michelle Samson and Brendan Sweeney share highlights from Trillium’s latest data bulletin focused on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in Ontario's manufacturing sector. A key finding is the inverse relationship between pay and the proportion of women and visible minorities in various industries, with some notable exceptions. The episode delves into the impact of education and immigration patterns on workforce demographics and underscores the necessity for systemic change to include underrepresented groups in trades.
