May 5 is Red Dress Day. On this day, we wear red to honour the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG). Red Dress Day started as an art series called the REDress Project in 2010 by Métis artist Jaime Black. With the goal to raise awareness about the MMIWG crisis, Red Dress Day is now commemorated annually across the country on May 5. View the REDress Project here: https://ow.ly/HiOu50Rw5Ab Learn more about Red Dress Day here: https://ow.ly/Tf0650Rw5qu Westland is on a journey toward reconciliation, and we believe it's essential to amplify Indigenous voices and address systemic issues that disproportionately affect Indigenous Peoples. One way we're doing this is through supporting our Indigenous Employee Resource Group, which is a voluntary, employee-led group that assists Westland in decolonization and Indigenization while providing support for Indigenous inclusion and education, such as mentoring, networking, and training opportunities. Let's use this day as a reminder to listen, learn, and take action to support Indigenous communities and advocate for justice and equality. #RedDressDay #MMIWG #IndigenousRights #Reconciliation #Inclusion #Diversity #EndViolence

Redefining the well-being of our employees. At Westland, we do things differently. Manage HR Magazine highlighted Westland’s unique holistic approach to creating a supportive and healthy work environment. Benefits Specialist, Sneha Fidelis shares, “At Westland, we recognize that wellness encompasses a healthy body, a sound mind and a tranquil spirit.” A ‘one size fits all’ approach doesn’t work for wellness, and we know that people’s needs change over time. At Westland, we offer a wide range of options that go beyond typical health benefits, supporting our employees’ wellness needs, including physical, mental, emotional, social, financial, career, and community. Here’s how we cultivate a culture where well-being thrives at every level: • Listen to employees: Amplify their voices! • Take a multi-dimensional approach: Wellness isn’t one size fits all. • Measure success & continuously improve benefit offerings.
