Diversity Our vision of a high performance culture is one that values and embraces diversity, encourages each employee to flourish, and helps us understand the unique needs of our diverse customer base. A culture we can be proud of As a leading international company, we strongly support an internal culture that respects all points-of-view, ethnicities, and lifestyles. We believe a workplace that embraces individual differences also fuels creativity and innovation. Efforts that significantly improve awareness, appreciation of differences and encourage open-mindedness are rewarded through our Employee Recognition Program. Our Diversity Steering Committee, chaired by the SLF U.S. President, oversees a wide variety of initiatives aimed at supporting the needs of our employee population, as well as our customers. We also encourage participation in Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), including: Asian American Heritage Association (AAHA) Black Leadership Awareness Council (BLAC) Gays, Lesbians and Others Building Equality (GLOBE) Hispanic Organization for Leaders and Achievers (HOLA) Women's Leadership Network (WLN) At Sun Life Financial, we are committed to serving the diverse needs of the communities in which we work and live through charitable giving and employee volunteer programs. Our ERGs organize opportunities built around professional development, community relations and internal diversity efforts. Additionally, ERGs conduct awareness-driven company-wide events and participate in recruitment efforts, multicultural marketing and the selection of organizations to support through our Community Relations Program. We primarily support health-focused organizations and additionally provide support for social services, education and arts, and cultural organizations. Our programs offer the opportunity for every employee to be involved with fundraising efforts for select organizations in the community, volunteer their time, and make personal donations to the numerous non-profit organizations that we support.
