Building a sense of belonging

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We embrace diversity, equity and inclusion across our workforce and within our workplace. Why? Because it makes our business stronger.

For us, DEI is personal.  It's about people being their best and authentic selves, sharing their humanity, contributing their talents, and driving progress and change that helps each other and our organization. 

We're committed to building a culture within our workplace where everyone thrives and is deeply aware of the role they can play in being an ally and supporting DEI efforts across our offices globally.   

Driven by leadership, owned by every colleague

“We’re committed to creating environments where every individual feels comfortable being their true and authentic selves. This is a top priority. Increased diversity is not only the right thing to do, it will also contribute to the resilience of our franchise by boosting innovation and giving us an edge over our competition.”  

–Roy Gori, President & CEO, Manulife

Employee Resource Groups

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are voluntary networks led by colleagues who share a common identity or life experience. They provide support and advice to each other, create connections with the community and raise awareness of issues, challenges and initiatives. They also provide insight to DEI issues and hold us accountable to our DEI commitments.

Globally, Manulife has 15 Employee Resource Groups with 40 chapters and over 14,000 members. Learn more about our ERG's in the section below.
