At Normandin Beaudry, we recognize that some groups face systemic barriers that create inequality in employment. That’s why we have made a commitment to our employees and candidates to contribute to reducing such inequality.

We honour this commitment through multiple initiatives, such as continually improving our hiring process. This includes putting in place mechanisms to reduce unconscious bias, diversifying the networks on which we post our job offers and raising employee awareness through training.

As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage women, people with disabilities, Indigenous people and members of visible and ethnic minorities to apply.

Normandin Beaudry fosters an inclusive work environment where the respect of others and their differences are valued. We are looking for applicants of various backgrounds in order to build a diverse and value-added workforce for the firm.
