Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (“DEI”) policy:

• Western Red Cedar Lumber Association (WRCLA) believe that equity, diversity, and inclusion go hand in hand. Associations that leverage the opportunities of a diverse workforce also commonly work to identify and address possible systemic barriers embedded within policies and practices that inadvertently exclude individuals.
• To better reflect diversity within our Association, WRCLA acknowledges the need to attract and retain a skilled, diverse workforce, and value the diversity of our contractors and members by leveraging individual characteristics, experiences, values, and skills.
• Through the implementation of this policy, we aim to embrace equity, diversity, and inclusion, and recognize that different backgrounds, strengths, and perspectives will continue to make WRCLA stronger and ensure that our leadership, team, and workplace reflects and respects the diversity of our workforce, our members, our partners, and the larger demographic.
• WRCLA is committed to providing a healthy, safe, and inclusive workplace where respect and diversity are recognized assets. WRCLA encourages and welcomes applications from qualified and diverse people committed to meaningful work that makes a difference.
