Primary Talent Partners, a leading staffing firm, and Omni Inclusive, an inclusive & sustainable workforce solutions company, are thrilled to launch the Contingent Workforce Inclusion Council (CWIC), a staffing supplier-based council aimed at driving the adoption of justice, diversity, equity, & inclusion (JDE&I) recruitment and retention strategies within the contingent workforce industry.
In an era where diversity and inclusion have become integral components of any thriving organization, Primary Talent Partners and Omni Inclusive have recognized the need for a collective effort to make JDE&I not just a differentiator but the norm in the contingent workforce ecosystem.
The CWIC is a testament to the commitment of both organizations to lead the way in fostering ESG initiatives within the staffing industry. It will serve as a space for staffing suppliers to collaborate, learn, and share best practices on effectively incorporating JDE&I principles into their recruitment and retention strategies, ultimately fostering workplace inclusion and equity.
"The formation of the CWIC marks a significant milestone in our journey towards a more inclusive workforce," said Chad Douglas, Founder and Partner at Primary Talent Partners. "We believe that JDE&I should not be seen as a competitive advantage but as a fundamental aspect of our industry. We aim to reshape the contingent workforce landscape by collaborating with Omni Inclusive."
“I feel strongly that inclusion should not be a trade secret but commonplace within our industry. By forming the CWIC, I hope to help educate and learn from other staffing firms how to create a sense of belonging for our contract workers.” - Wen Stenger, CEO, Omni Inclusive.
Membership in the CWIC is open to diverse and non-diverse staffing suppliers who share the vision of creating a more inclusive workforce. By joining the council, members will gain access to a supportive community of like-minded organizations committed to advancing JDE&I in the contingent workforce.
