2025 Impact Awards Winner: Conagra Brands Canada

The company’s Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Council aims to create a supportive environment where employees from various backgrounds can feel acknowledged and celebrated. 

It fosters a sense of community and enhances employee engagement as part of the organization’s alignment with its corporate values. 

Launched in June 2024, the council highlights Conagra’s commitment to diversity, inclusion and belonging. 

During an all-company summer BBQ, Conagra organized an activity to learn about employees’ backgrounds, promoting cultural awareness and understanding. 

This initiative also benefits the communities we serve by showcasing our commitment to diversity and inclusion. 

As well, Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) play a vital role in this effort. 

ERGs bring individuals together across functions in spaces where they can be their authentic selves, all while helping solve business challenges, supporting communities, developing valuable leadership skills and assisting colleagues on their professional journeys. 

At Conagra, that might mean celebrating Father's Day and Mother's Day with treats for employees, organizing a holiday party for kids or hosting a Take Your Kids to Work Day for Grade 9 students. 

The company also launched its first-ever mentorship program for all employees to facilitate their professional relationships and development opportunities.
