Experts say commitments to tackle racism in the workplace have not been met with enough action as a report released Tuesday found more than 70 per cent of Black Canadians still experience racism or microaggressions on the job.
Tarisai Madambi, co-lead of KPMG’s Black Professionals Network, said that while many companies have taken steps such as setting diversity targets or establishing employee resource groups to advance racial equity, it's just as important to act on the recommendations of racialized employees. According to the survey, 80 per cent of respondents feel they can speak up about racism at work without being stigmatized and that they have allies who will stand up for them when they witness instances of discrimination.
Eighty-six per cent called for more appointments of Black people to boards of directors or senior management ranks, while 82 per cent urged more anti-racism education and training for employees and management. "Nobody wants to feel like they are being forced into things. The last thing I would like to see is organizations making commitments because they feel like they're doing this as a checkbox or a compliance matter. It really needs to be something that we believe in."
