CIMA+ OBTAINS THE PARITY CERTIFICATION—SILVER LEVEL FROM WOMEN IN GOVERNANCE

 

MONTREAL, February 27, 2024—CIMA+, one of Canada’s largest privately-owned consulting engineering firms, is proud to announce that it has achieved the Silver level of its Parity Certification awarded by Women in Governance. One year after obtaining its first Bronze level certification, CIMA+ has demonstrated its ongoing commitment to parity within the company. Women in Governance’s Parity Certification assessment includes more than 75 quantitative and qualitative criteria, taking into account the multiple facets of diversity in the advancement of women’s careers. By undergoing Women in Governance’s assessment process, CIMA+ exemplifies the importance it places on promoting women in the workplace, at all levels of the company.

CIMA+ demonstrates its commitment to parity by having a Board of Directors of 4 women out of 7 members, as well as an Executive Committee of 30% women.

“In our efforts to offer professional and personal development opportunities for all, we have implemented mentoring and leadership development programs for women, in addition to improving our maternity leave policy,” explains Denis Thivierge, President and CEO. “It’s important to provide an environment in which the next generation of women can flourish in engineering, and we believe this recognition shows just how important our initiatives are.”

 

 

About the Women in Governance Parity Certification

The Women in Governance Parity Certification starts with a thorough diagnostic of an organization’s position on the gender parity spectrum as it pertains to the strategies (culture and commitments) and actions (communications, policy and programs) and the results they yield. Following this assessment, the customized report outlines best practices and the key drivers to enable an organization to build a roadmap to gender parity and achieve greater inclusion.
