Women members have helped the organization better understand the challenges and opportunities shared by women, including the need to increase flexibility in the work environment. Their feedback has supported the development of a full roster of Work Life Solutions to meet employees’ diverse needs.
This Forum’s structure evolved into several sub-committees, including Networking, Marketing, Mentoring, Environment and Charitable.The Charitable Committee's objective is to support the community through charitable work, either through fundraising or participation. Recent organizations supported include: Pedal for Kids for the Montreal Children's Hospital, Weekend to End Breast Cancer for the Jewish General Hospital and Christmas Food Drive for Generations Foundation.
