37 A diverse and inclusive workforce


In 2012 we began a new three-year diversity plan that addresses specific gaps and needs identified through employee feedback.


• Employees have asked for more local leadership and visible role models, clarity on what it takes to advance within the organization and support to develop the necessary capabilities.


• Managers want more tools, training and cultural competence to prepare them for managing an increasingly diverse workforce.


How we are responding to these gaps and needs is described throughout this section and in the article “Building Diversity Into TD’s Cultural DNA.”


We continue to look for ways to make our workplace more accessible for employees with disabilities, improving retention and overall hiring. While TD hired more Aboriginal Peoples in 2011, the increase is relatively small given TD’s general growth in employee population. Due to the size of this designated group, which was 528 employees in 2011, small changes will have a great impact on the representational numbers.


2012 Highlights


• 150 TD executives, senior managers and diversity representatives in Canada attended a presentation by diversity, assessment, development and well-being specialist professor Binna Kandola on unconscious bias.


• In the U.S. we are testing two new assistive technologies for introduction in 2013. These will offer employees with fine motor challenges, limited use of their upper limbs and/or chronic pain new ways to navigate computer software and programs.


• By the end of 2012 all employees in Canada had participated in a Diversity and Inclusion e-learning program.
