DEI Week


Each year we bring focus to DEI through our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Week. This is an opportunity for employees at all levels to engage in activities and conversations focused on promoting and fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace.


These activities include live sessions and workshops, opportunities to read and discuss the company’s DEI policy, take courses, and participate in discussions about DEI-related topics.


DEI Week 2022 – the focus points:


In 2022, one session focused on disability, where guest speakers emphasized that disabilities can be physical or mental, permanent or temporary, and are not always visible. They discussed the different types of disabilities, such as developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, and chronic illnesses, and how they can affect individuals in several ways. The speakers emphasized the importance of being aware of the challenges faced by people with disabilities and being mindful of their needs.


Joyce Weeks, Group IT Operations Director and DEI SteerCo member, conducted a virtual session discussing conscious and unconscious biases in the workplace. She explained that while conscious bias is deliberate discrimination, unconscious bias is automatic and based on our background experiences and cultural context. To address these biases, Crown has made its unconscious bias iLearn course mandatory, and we encourage all employees to take it or refresh their knowledge on the topic.
