Diversity

At FMI, we recognize the true power lies in harnessing the collective strength of a diverse workforce. Western Canada's infrastructure is as varied as the communities it serves, and fostering an inclusive environment is the cornerstone of delivering exceptional projects. Here's how we translate that commitment into action:

Building a Representative Team:

We actively seek talent from a broad range of backgrounds, cultures, and experiences. This goes beyond demographics; we value diversity of thought, perspectives, and approaches to problem-solving. We partner with organizations promoting inclusion in the trades and actively recruit at job fairs targeting diverse demographics.

Cultivating an Inclusive Culture:

We believe in creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique skills. We provide unconscious bias training for all employees, fostering a culture of understanding and collaboration. Our open-door policy ensures employees feel comfortable raising concerns or offering suggestions.

Celebrating Differences:

We celebrate the tapestry of cultures and backgrounds within our team. We recognize cultural holidays, support employee resource groups, and encourage open communication to foster a sense of belonging. This not only enriches the work environment but also allows us to better understand the needs of the diverse communities we serve.

Investing in the Future:

We're committed to building a pipeline of future talent that reflects the diversity of our region. We partner with educational institutions offering mentorship programs and scholarships for students from underrepresented groups in the trades.

By embracing diversity, FMI fosters innovation, enhances problem-solving capabilities, and strengthens our ability to meet the evolving needs of our clients. It's not just the right thing to do; it's the key to building a future where everyone benefits from Western Canada's thriving utility infrastructure.
