Fostering Inclusion: A Commitment to Diversity and Belonging at Muse Cannabis

Commitment to Diversity and Belonging at Muse Cannabis

At Muse Cannabis, inclusivity and diversity are core values that shape our company’s culture. We are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone feels valued and respected, regardless of their background. Here's how we achieve this:

Inclusive Hiring Process

Our commitment to diversity starts with our hiring process. We include a diversity statement in all job postings, encouraging individuals from various backgrounds to apply. During interviews, we focus solely on qualifications and skills, using a structured approach with multiple interviewers to eliminate bias which ensures fair consideration for all.

Respectful Work Environment

We promote a respectful workplace by encouraging new team members to introduce themselves and share their pronouns. We also use gender-neutral signage for washrooms and incorporate inclusive language in our communication to foster a safe and welcoming space for all.

Supportive Policies

Our comprehensive policy outlines clear guidelines for interactions and ensures a supportive environment. We address discrimination, harassment, and bias head-on, fostering a workplace where respect and inclusivity are prioritized.

Recognition Based on Merit

Our rewards and recognition program emphasizes job-related achievements, ensuring that recognition is based on merit and performance. This approach promotes a fair and inclusive system that values everyone's contributions.

Language Inclusivity and Continuous Learning

To better serve our diverse customer base, we provide a multi-language "cheat sheet" for guest communication. We also prioritize continuous learning and recently hosted an open discussion on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to gather insights and perspectives.

Humility, Accountability, and Community Support

At Muse Cannabis, we approach every situation with humility and personal accountability. While we understand that mistakes can happen, we always strive to learn and grow from them.

To engage with our communities, spread awareness and give back to organizations that make a positive impact beyond our store walls, we created our inaugural community outreach initiative called Muse: High Hopes. This program aims to highlight organizations making positive impacts to support and uplift the communities we serve.

At Muse Cannabis, our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and belonging is woven into our company’s DNA. We believe that creating an inclusive environment not only benefits our team members but also enhances the experience of our customers. By fostering diversity, promoting respect, and supporting community initiatives, we strive to build stronger teams, serve our customers better, and contribute to a more equitable society. Together, we can create a space where everyone feels valued, respected, and welcomed.
