Aligning our recruitment practices with our mission, values and goals, the 2DHB’s are committed to creating and maintaining an environment that is culturally rich, inclusive and free of discrimination. Our communities reflect many dimensions of diversity and we need to be reflective of the communities we represent. Diversity and inclusion are much broader concepts that welcome, value, and engage people from all backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. Equal employment opportunity and deliberate hiring for all dimensions of diversity are not separate actions, nor are they loosely connected to our recruitment and selection processes. They are central elements, purposely woven into the structure of our recruitment and hiring processes, so that we may achieve our Mission, Value and Strategic Goals.
