Amilia Named One of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ for Inclusion

Amilia has been recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ for Inclusion in 2025, reflecting its genuine commitment to building a safe, human-centric culture where everyone can thrive. This honor is especially meaningful, because it’s based entirely on feedback from the team, with 99% of Amilians agreeing on feeling included at work, regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, or sexual orientation. This nomination is a testament to Amilia’s authentic and caring culture that empowers people from all backgrounds and identities to feel truly welcome and valued every day. 

Actions, Not Just Words

At Amilia, inclusion goes beyond a mission statement. It’s brought to life through real programs and everyday actions that break down barriers and foster belonging.

From DEIB trainings that help teams build trust and understanding, to safe-spaces that give a voice to women, LGBTQIA+ employees, racial and ethnic minorities team members, Amilia’s people know they can be themselves at work while they contribute to the company's mission.

Amilia’s core value “Be Authentic” is highly valued among employees and management, as their Talent & Culture leader reveals: 

“Inclusion at Amilia means everyone has the space to be real, make mistakes, learn from them, and grow. When people feel safe speaking up and bringing their authentic selves, we unlock better ideas, build true connections, and foster a deep sense of belonging. That’s how we create stronger teams and greater impact. "

 - Natacha Brind’Amour, VP of Talent & Culture at Amilia 

Creating a Safe Environment for All

Amilia’s culture of inclusion is supported by tangible initiatives that ensure every voice is heard and respected:

  • Inclusive Expression Formats: Their open, two-way communication meetings give employees a platform to express themselves. In these meetings, everyone's opinion matters. Amilia's corporate value, “Better Together,” emphasizes the importance of freely sharing ideas and providing everyone with the opportunity to express themselves in a way that suits their preferences or capabilities.
  • Education & Growth: Quarterly DEIB training sessions, both live and recorded, help employees deepen their understanding of inclusion, neurodiversity, and behaviors that foster inclusive workplaces. The Leadership Program includes a session focused entirely on psychological safety, equipping people leaders with the mindset and tools necessary to foster trust and openness within their teams.
  • Community Connection spaces: Dedicated Slack channels and employee-led groups act as safe-spaces to bring people together around shared identities and experiences, from parenting to Pride and Women's causes. 

A Partner that Walks the Talk

Amilia’s commitment to inclusion extends beyond its walls. By championing a culture where people are respected and differences are valued, the company is better equipped to serve clients who do the same for their communities. 

"At Amilia, we partner with organizations that serve diverse and dynamic communities. We believe that being an inclusive employer, one that brings together people from different backgrounds, experiences, and identities, is key to understanding and supporting those we serve. This commitment is part of what makes us a partner of choice, and it's also why we're proud to have been recognized for our leadership in inclusion.”

- Hugo Lachance, CEO of Amilia

Amilia will continue to listen, learn, and take meaningful action to ensure that inclusion remains at the heart of its culture—because when people feel safe and supported to be themselves, everyone wins.
