Desjardins

Desjardins Group is proud to be recognized as the largest cooperative financial group in Canada, offering a wide range of financial products and services to businesses and individuals.

COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY

Throughout its history, Desjardins Group has always been able to adapt and take on the challenges it has encountered. And so in 2006, in response to the evolving societal values of our members and clients, and our cooperative and business requirements, the Board of Directors of the Fédération des caisses Desjardins du Québec adopted the Desjardins approach to diversity. The primary objective of this approach is to respond to the current and future needs of our members, clients, officers and employees, to ensure that there is a sense of participation and inclusiveness among these groups and that we remain a cooperative institution that is representative of our community. We are therefore proud to support Pride at Work Canada and its initiatives. The principles of equality and inclusiveness that the organization promotes are fully in line with our cooperative values.

VISION FOR THE FUTURE

Desjardins has established itself as a cooperative financial group that recognizes and believes in diversity as a strength and a resource for the future. We believe that developing a culture of diversity is far more than just a business requirement or a matter of complying with legislation. Above all, it is a cooperative requirement, a business plan for overall and lasting performance.We are well aware that a culture of diversity isn’t something that develops overnight. It needs to grow in an atmosphere of trust following the principle of shared responsibility.
