Staffing, Recruiting and Culture Firm Recognized for its Diversity Efforts by Daily Herald Suburban Business
CHICAGO – LaSalle Network, a national staffing, recruiting and culture firm, has been recognized by Daily Herald Suburban Business on its 2022 “Diversity in Business Awards” for its efforts surrounding diversity in the workplace.
This award honors businesses who have shown exceptional commitment to promoting practices that advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace, in business leadership and who bolster equality across all areas of diversity; including age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, race and religion.
LaSalle Network created a Diversity, Equity and Belonging committee to further support these efforts in the workplace with some initiatives including: education on cultural holidays led by employees at company-wide meetings, a panel event moderated by LaSalle Network’s CHRO on DEI support within the workforce with two leading Human Resources professionals that had 400+ leaders across the country in attendance, LGBTQ+ education around pride flags, trivia on notable LGBTQ+ figures and history, and a company-wide panel event with three LaSalle employees who are part of the LGBTQ+ community for a conversation about their experiences being LGBTQ+, partnership with schools and homeless shelters in underserved communities to provide donations and support, from painting school facilities to building baskets of necessities for the homeless.
LaSalle Network also created LaSalle Veteran Network, a hiring program that partners with veterans and MiliSpouses to provide job-search assistance, helping hundreds of veterans since its inception.
Honorees will be profiled in a special publication of the Daily Herald Suburban Business published on Sept. 18. Click here for the full list of companies recognized.
