Employee Experience is a small but mighty team at Interior Health (IH) that focuses on designing meaningful and welcoming employee experiences.

The team focuses on Indigenous Employee Experience, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), accessibility, recognition, employee storytelling and listening, and employee experience measurement. The goal? To create inclusive work environments for staff that are culturally and psychologically safe, where they feel comfortable bringing their whole, authentic selves to work.

Some of our favourite summer activities like camping, hiking or relaxing at the beach involve us coming into contact with mosquitoes.
