Happy Pride Month 🏳️🌈 As an agency, we're committed to embracing diversity and inclusion and being able to celebrate Pride and the LGBTQ community means a lot to us. But we know this goes beyond one month and this support needs to extend year-round to make sure no one faces barriers just because of who they are.

"Even during the recruiting phase, discrimination and bias in hiring practices persist. A study from 2015 revealed that even then, five per cent of LGBTQ candidates were less likely to get called in for an interview than straight or female hopefuls. Various studies have shown that once in a role, LGBTQ employees are less likely to be promoted to leadership positions and are often overlooked for higher-paying posts. Another contributing factor is the lack of inclusive workplace policies and benefits. While some companies have implemented LGBTQ -inclusive policies, such as non-discrimination protections and domestic partner benefits, others lag behind."
