Description
As many construction companies focus on long-term strategic growth, attracting and retaining employees has become increasingly critical. In addition to enhanced employee engagement and retention, a diverse and inclusive (D&I) culture has direct links to greater innovation, higher levels of performance, and profitability. Both construction employers and labor unions increasingly recognize the value of D&I and are implementing programs to encourage members of underrepresented groups to join the construction industry. Hear from a panel about the current and future impact of D&I on business outcomes as they leverage their industry expertise, sharing ideas and best practices from their D&I programs.
