Women
We are dedicated to fostering a culture of gender equality, support, success, and empowerment for every future.
Advancing Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging
Scotiabank continues to work together with our communities to remove barriers, increase opportunities, and improve representation for women.
We recognize that building a more diverse workforce enables us to become a better Bank and a stronger partner in our communities. While our work to build a truly inclusive organization is never complete, we're pleased with the progress we have made, particularly with regard to gender representation at all levels of the Bank.
Scotiabank's renewed diversity strategy focuses on underrepresented employees, with annual milestones set to reach its diversity and inclusion goals in Canada, which include building an inclusive workforce where 40% of senior leadership globally are women.
