May 2023 DEIJ Calendar

The May 2023 DEIJ calendar is posted below. The calendar is embedded with links for you to learn about the days in more detail.

Ways to use the DEIJ calendar:

• Share the calendar with colleagues
• Consider days of significance when scheduling important meetings or events to avoid potentially excluding some groups of people
• Know that some people may ask for time off to honour days of significance to them
• Ask colleagues if they are celebrating or honouring anything this month as a way to open dialogue about days that are important to your team members.
• Print the calendar and post in the workplace or in public-facing settings

If you’re an employee of the Municipality, you should also have access to the DEIJ Outlook calendar which is updated frequently with learning resources and local events taking place this month.

We also continue to post information and events in the 'Engage' section of our DEIJ Employee Portal.

Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions. We always welcome your perspectives.
