Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging

Calian is committed to fostering a psychologically safe and inclusive culture, that embraces differences, so that everyone can feel they belong and contribute to their maximum potential.

Serving global communities

Our motivation for focusing on diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging is to better serve our communities. Diverse workforces are more representative of the human race as a whole—and that’s ultimately who Calian serves.

A diverse team

Calian is proud to have representation and participation from diverse groups of people across our business units. We’ve felt the first-hand benefits of diversifying our teams and supporting underrepresented populations in obtaining the skills they need for new roles. Fresh perspectives. New innovation. Higher levels of job satisfaction. That’s what you can expect from life at Calian.

An equitable workplace

As an equal opportunity employer, Calian values fairness—in our hiring process but also throughout your career. Our recruitment team takes every step possible to mitigate hiring bias by following a fair, accessible and inclusive process. Our leadership team ensures everyone has access to the same treatment and advancement opportunities.

Employee Resource Groups

We are proud of our employee resource groups (ERGs), created by employees, for employees. They foster connection and a workplace culture centred on empathy, growth and mutual understanding. With eight diverse groups already in place and more on the horizon, our ERG program is expanding to embrace even more perspectives and experiences.

Exchanging insights

Our ERGs are platforms for employees to unite, exchange insights and share their passions, journeys and aspirations—driving opportunities for personal and professional advancement.

Variety of groups

Each ERG focuses on a theme and employees are invited to join the groups that resonate most with their backgrounds and passions.

Inclusive community

By joining one or more ERGs, Calian employees are celebrating their differences and building a stronger, more inclusive community at Calian.
