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.

Interior Health (IH) staff are beginning to transition to gloves featuring an Indigenous bear logo at work sites across the region. The logo not only represents cultural awareness but represents the vendor Medical, Surgical and Safety Supplies Ltd.’s profit-sharing commitment to support economic reconciliation for Indigenous communities, including the Osoyoos Indian Band.
